It should also include a thorough exam completed by the dentist, a professional cleaning, X-rays, and an oral cancer screening. The average in markets throughout the United States is between $200 and $350. If you have insurance, these fees are likely to be covered by your plan.
Dentistry is all about prevention. It is affordable and offers high value if you work with your dentist to prevent serious dental issues before they develop and require costly restorative treatments. Dental insurance is an effective tool to help pay for dental care. If you have access to it, this is a great benefit to take advantage of. If you don’t have dental insurance, this doesn’t mean that you are completely out of luck. We are also happy to accept payments through CareCredit – a third-party financing company that can split the cost of your treatment into manageable monthly installments with little to no interest. If you have any questions or need help applying, don’t hesitate to give us a call.
