Dental Insurance
We accept most major dental plans. As a courtesy to our patients who have dental insurance, we will complete and submit your claim to your insurance carrier for you. Before your visit, please bring your insurance card and any relevant plan information so we can verify your coverage and help you understand your benefits.
Most dental plans place a strong emphasis on preventive care, often covering routine cleanings and exams and X-rays at a high percentage. Many plans also provide partial coverage for treatments such as fillings, scaling and root planing, crowns, bridges, and dentures. Coverage varies from plan to plan, so we encourage you to contact our office with questions.

- Visa

Making the Most of Your Benefits
Many dental plans renew each year, and unused benefits may not carry over. Scheduling your twice-yearly preventive visits and completing recommended treatment within your benefit year can help you get the most value from your plan. Preventive care like sealants and oral cancer screenings can also help you avoid more costly treatment later, since problems such as tooth decay and gum disease are easier and more affordable to treat when caught early.
Clear Treatment Plans, No Surprises
Before any treatment beyond a routine visit, Dr. Felicia Baltazar will explain your diagnosis and recommended options, and our team will review estimated costs with you. We want you to feel informed and comfortable with every decision. Learn more about what to expect at your first visit, browse our dental services, or read our frequently asked questions.
