The professionals at Mallette Dental are here to help you. We want to make your entire experience as pleasant as possible as we provide the best dental services we can to our patients. Along with restoring your teeth and gums to good health, our dedicated team also focuses on preventive care and patient education, a priority for us.
Your initial visit with Dr. Mallette begins with a review of your general health history. We ask that you provide the staff with any information regarding your medical history. This information is critical to providing you with safe care. We also discuss your needs and expectations.
Next, digital radiographs (x-rays) will be taken, as well as a thorough initial exam, oral cancer screening and complete analysis of your dental condition. Impressions of your teeth and intraoral images may also be needed to aid in diagnosis.
A complete treatment plan will be done by Dr. Mallette and presented at your follow-up visit along with his analysis of the options on treatments available to you to improve and maintain your optimal dental condition.
For patients with dental insurance, your co-payment is due on the day of treatment. The office manager will help you determine the insurance coverage available to you by reviewing your contract or by previous payment history in our computer systems. We require one signed insurance form at the first visit of the year, after which we generate computer-printed standardized forms.
Remember, professional care is provided to you not the insurance company. Thus, the insurance company is responsible to you, and you are responsible to us. We will help you in any way we can by filing claims on your behalf. We are happy to provide this service to you.
Dr. Jeff cares about your dental health, and many insurance companies care more about saving themselves money than your optimal treatment. Therefore, when the insurance company wont approve a payment for what Dr. Mallette recommends, we will help you by filing claims, photos and explanations for our treatment plan. But ultimately, you need to decide what is best for your health and to whom you should listen. As always, we are willing to work out financial options for any outstanding balances.
WE WILL TREAT YOU WITH HONESTY If your teeth look great, we will tell you. If your teeth need work, we will give you as many dental options as possible then let you decide what you want to do and when you want to do it.
WE WILL PROVIDE STABLE CONTINUITY OF CARE Since we provide most all dental services you get one staff who knows you, your health and dental needs. You rarely need to see dental specialists which saves you time and treatment costs.
WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO MAKE YOUR VISIT ENJOYABLE You are a guest in our office whenever you stop by. Our staff will always treat you with respect and consideration. Our goal is to make you comfortable and at ease when you visit us!
