Insurance Infomation
A dental insurance plan is a contract between you and an insurance company that, in most cases, is coordinated by your employer. If that's the case, the insurance company and your employer are responsible for negotiating the details of the plan. Because our office has no control over this contract, we cannot request additional coverage for you.

There are several kinds of dental insurance plans. The four most common kinds of plans are:

  • direct reimbursement programs
  • preferred provider organizations
  • capitation plans (dental health maintenance organizations)
  • indemnity or "usual, customary and reasonable" plans
