We accept cash, personal checks, and most major credit cards. Our office accepts nearly all insurance plans and also accepts all North and South Carolina Medicaid, excluding HMOs and DMOs. Even though dental insurance is a private arrangement between you and your company, we will file your claim, handle all the paperwork, and help you get maximum insurance benefits. Ask us about our easy financing options such as Care Credit, an interest-free, flexible monthly payment plan you can apply for right in our office. We will always open a discussion with you surrounding the cost of your treatment and your available payment options before you begin treatment, so that you can make the best choice for you, your smile, and your family.
Make sure you continue to brush 3 times a day and floss nightly! Use a water pik if you have difficulty flossing between your wires. Continue regular visits with your general dentist and make sure to always keep a travel toothbrush and toothpaste with you!
Try to stay away from hard foods like whole nuts, tortilla chips, granola bars and hard candy (Jolly Ranchers, Jaw Breakers.)
