Payment is requested at each appointment as services are rendered. As a courtesy to our patients, we will electronically submit all dental insurance claims so they can easily be processed. Our dental practice cannot render services on the assumption that the resulting charges will be covered by insurance. Please understand that the parent/guardian bringing the child to our practice is legally responsible for payment of all charges. With regard to billing, it is our policy not to mail statements. We appreciate your understanding and for your convenience, we accept cash, checks and all major credit cards.
