Will you take me as a patient even though I do not have dental insurance?

Will you help me file my dental insurance claims?
Yes. We accept most insurance plans. We will work with you and your insurance company to process your claims.

We will help you find an affordable payment option. We will estimate your portion and ask you to pay that amount at the time of service.
