How to Find Quality Treatment That Fits Your Budget and Needs

Affordable dental care can include preventive, restorative, and supportive services. Preventive visits (i.e.  exams, oral cancer screenings, cleanings, X-rays, sealants, and fluoride treatments) help find problems early and may reduce the need for future complex and costly care. Restorative treatment may include fillings, simple extractions, root canals, crowns, bridges, implants, and dentures. Some practices also offer sedation or anxiety-relief options and accommodations for patients with mobility, sensory, language, cognitive, or special medical needs.

Dental savings plans are different from dental insurance. A dental savings plan offers discounted rates that you pay directly to participating dentists on eligible dental services for a yearly membership fee. Whereas, dental insurance plans offer to pay a percentage of eligible dental services in exchange for paying a monthly or annual premium. Gentle Dental accepts over 200 dental insurance plans and Essential Dental Plan, a dental savings plan. 

Gentle Dental accepts more than 200 dental insurance plans including Delta Dental, MetLife, BlueCross BlueShield, Guardian, Cigna, Aetna, Altus, Assurant, and United Concordia. Contact one of our offices to help verify your insurance coverage and discuss all available payment options.
