General Questions

What is your financial policy?

Our goal is to provide our patients with the best dental care possible at the most reasonable cost. Payment for care is due at the time of service unless other arrangements have been made in advance. To help you, we offer a variety of payment options including cash, check, VISA, MasterCard and Discover.

If at any time you have questions regarding your account, please contact us. Many times a simple telephone call will clear up any misunderstandings.

Do you give a discount for cash payment in full?

No.

Do you offer weekend or evening hours?

On a case by case basis. If you can’t make an appointment time during our regular business hours, please contact our office. We will make every effort to accommodate you.

Do you treat children?

Yes, we do. We advise that children learn the importance of keeping their teeth and gums healthy at a young age, as to prevent periodontal disease in the future. Children should brush their teeth twice a day and learn how to floss properly- if children learn how to floss at an early age, they will be more likely to make it a lifetime habit. These two simple acts will help protect their teeth and gums from periodontal disease.

As a parent, you should also be aware of the warning signs of periodontal disease, which include red, swollen, bleeding gums or bad breath that won’t go away. If your child develops any of these symptoms, tell your dental professional right away. It’s also a good idea to ensure your dental professional knows your complete family history, as genetics can play an important role in the early development of periodontal disease.
