Questions we hear most

You get a written estimate for the whole plan before any treatment, and a receipt you can keep.

Call us and we'll answer plainly for your plan. Coverage for oral surgery varies by plan.

Yes. Ask when you book or at your consultation, and we put it in writing before anything starts.

No. Some patients come from their dentist and some call us first. We send your dentist a note either way.

Dr. Nair sees teenagers and adults. For younger children, we help you find a pediatric dentist.

Mauro Carmona, our patient coordinator, does. Ask for him when you call.

Call us as early as you can. For surgery with sedation, we need to know before the night you start fasting.
