 Fees
The fee for your endodontic treatment will be based on the extent of treatment. During your first consultation visit we will discuss the probable number of visits, their length, and the fees involved.
Endodontic Consultation
This consists of an examination and testing, discussing the likelihood of mainitaining the tooth and treatment options available to you. Payment is due at the time of service. There will be an additional fee for x-rays. At which, your first visit examination fee will range from $130–$170.
Endodontic Treatment
Those without dental insurance: 50% of the total will be required when we begin treatment and the balance is due at the completion appointment. Sometimes, if the procedure is completed in one visit, full payment is due at the time of service. For your convenience, we accept Cash, Checks, Debit Card, Mastercard and Visa.
Those with dental insurance: We will estimate your insurance coverage for you. Since this varies for each individual, usually 25–75% of the cost of the procedure is required at the time of the service. Your copayment and any deductible is due at the time of service. Please keep in mind insurance companies routinely indicate that coverage verification does not guarantee payment.
We will help you submit an accurate claim to your insurance carrier within one business day. If you request, we will also provide you a hardcopy claim for you to follow and verify with your insurance provider. Please note that this is a courtesy service we provide for your convenience. Ultimately, you are responsible for the fee for the service rendered for any unpaid amount.
