Dental Insurance We Accept in Charlotte and Potterville

We are proud to accept Delta Dental at both our Charlotte and Potterville offices. Our front desk team checks your benefits, explains your coverage in plain language, and files claims for you, so insurance paperwork stays simple.

How to Use Your Delta Dental Benefits at Our Office

Using your Delta Dental benefits here is easy. Bring your insurance card to your first visit, and we’ll verify coverage before treatment starts, including for dental cleanings and exams and what you’ll owe, if anything.

What If I Don’t Have Dental Insurance?

Not having dental insurance doesn’t mean skipping care. Many patients pay directly for treatment, and we’ll always give you a clear cost estimate first. We also offer CareCredit financing, explained below, to help spread out larger treatment costs.

Affordable Dental Financing Through CareCredit

For patients without insurance, or whose plan doesn’t cover the full cost of treatment, CareCredit is a helpful way to spread payments over time. It’s a healthcare credit card accepted at both our Charlotte and Potterville offices, so cost doesn’t have to stand between you and the care you need.

How CareCredit Works

CareCredit lets you pay for treatment over time instead of all at once. Depending on the plan you choose, you may qualify for a period with no interest if you pay the balance within that window. It works like a credit card, used only for healthcare costs.

Applying for CareCredit Before Your Appointment

You can apply for CareCredit online before your visit, and most patients get a decision within minutes. Once approved, you’ll know your available credit and can talk with our team about using it toward your treatment plan, so there are no surprises on the day of your appointment.

Understanding Your Coverage: What We Help You With

Insurance can be confusing, especially figuring out what’s covered before you commit to treatment. Our team spends time upfront explaining your benefits so you’re never left guessing.

Maximizing Your Annual Insurance Benefits

Most dental plans reset once a year, and unused benefits don’t carry over. We’ll help you understand your annual maximum, the total your plan pays yearly, and let you know if scheduling treatment before your benefits reset makes sense.

Transparent Cost Estimates Before Treatment Begins

Before starting treatment beyond a routine cleaning, we’ll give you a written cost estimate. This includes what we expect insurance to cover and what you’ll owe, so there’s nothing to guess at when the bill arrives.
