Insurance and Financial Policies

Coverage for endodontic services such as root canal therapy, retreatment, and apical surgery varies among plans. Your out-of-pocket responsibility will depend on your dental insurance benefits.  We recommend reviewing your insurance benefits before arriving for your appointment.

We are in-network with the following dental insurance plans: Cigna, Aetna, Horizon, Delta, and MetLife. We will gladly file insurance claims on your behalf. Dental insurance is designed to help reduce your out-of-pocket dental expenses, and there will usually be some sort of out-of-pocket expense that you will be expected to pay at the time of service. Reimbursement levels are determined by your insurance provider and generally do not take up-to-date regional data into account. Additionally, there is no regulation governing how insurance companies determine reimbursement, and they are not required to disclose how they set these levels. Insurance companies do not guarantee payment on claims and reserve the right to make payments based on their estimation of "Usual and Customary Rates."

We will file your insurance claims, track them, follow up on delayed claims, and help with insurance family plans. We want to help you maximize your benefits and will provide digital dental X-rays and a written diagnostic report should your insurance company have any questions about the services provided. We submit claims electronically, enabling faster, more secure data transmission.

Please provide your insurance information to our staff when you call our office. Also, make sure to bring your identification and insurance cards to the office when you come in for your visit.
