Insurance made easy
Insurance plans can be confusing. Our team is experienced with a wide range of dental plans and will help you get the most out of your benefits. We work directly with your provider and can usually submit your claim forms for you.
Affordable payment plans
No insurance, or your plan does not cover everything? We offer a Dental Savers Plan that helps cover preventive care and gives discounts on treatment, financing through CareCredit, and in-house payment plans for expenses insurance does not cover. Most patients qualify for no-interest payment plans.
Financial policy
Every patient has different financial needs. We will work with you to find a solution that gets you the care you need, with or without insurance. Call 317-743-0300 to ask about your options.
