Financial Arrangements

The cost of orthodontic treatment is dependent on individual needs and treatment plan. Our financial team will discuss your treatment costs and present a customizable payment plan with you, allowing you to make the best choice for yourself and your smile. Before you begin treatment, it is our goal to create a payment plan that fits your budget.

Direct Billing to Insurance

At Smile Buddy Children’s Dentistry, we are committed to making dental care convenient and accessible. That is why we offer Direct Insurance Billing!

Upon completion of your treatment, we can electronically submit your claim to your insurance company who will pay our clinic directly. This means that you do not have to pay for your dental treatment up-front, and then wait for your insurance company to reimburse you. The only time that you would be responsible for paying a fee would be if there is any difference between your insurance coverage and the cost of your dental treatment. For example, if your insurance company pays for 90% of the cost of your treatment, you would be responsible for paying the remaining 10% at our clinic.

With your permission, we can call your insurance company on your behalf and get your insurance breakdown. This will give our team members the details of your policy including maximums, covered procedures, and your eligibility for a new exams or x-rays. Direct insurance billing is a courtesy service provided by our clinic.

As the policyholder you are responsible for knowing your insurance limits and keeping track of your coverage amounts.

We are always available to help! Should you have any questions regarding your policy, please don’t hesitate to contact us.
