Patients should be aware that any insurance estimates we receive are based upon the most current information available to us at the time of your dental appointment.

For additional information about your coverage or your specific dental insurance plan, please feel free to contact one of our financial specialists or your insurance provider directly.
CareCredit
CareCredit is a line of credit that is specially designed to help patients and families pay for medical, dental, and veterinary expenses. You apply as you would for a credit card and once approved, your account can be used like a credit card to pay for services. Patients need only present their card when services are rendered and the account can be used for services.
To assist patients in finding the best payment options, CareCredit offers a variety of different interest rates and payment plans. Patients do not need to reapply for multiple procedures and there is no penalty for paying off the cost of procedures early. However, patients should always check to be sure that their provider accepts CareCredit before they schedule services. For a complete list of providers or more information on how to sign up, please call our office or go to the CareCredit website at www.carecredit.com.
The Cost Of Dental Implants
As a professional courtesy, we always provide our patients with a written estimate of the total cost of their procedure before we begin any treatment. However, the first step in figuring out how much your procedure might cost is to schedule a complimentary consultation with one of our doctors. There is no obligation and this examination helps us provide you with a more accurate price estimate.
Why You Should Avoid Discount Deals
Our patients can always rest assured that Dugan & Sweeney Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery uses only the highest quality products with a proven history of safe patient use. Additionally, when you get a quote, please remember that the total fee should include multiple parts of the procedure. There may also be additional costs for x-rays, anesthetics, and other services related to your surgery.
Remember, less expensive dental implants can seem like a great deal when patients are paying less up front. However, many of these bargain deals do not measure up when it comes to strength, quality, and durability. Moreover, there may be additional costs tacked onto your bill when your dental implants need to be replaced or adjusted.
