Dental insurance is not meant to cover all of your expenses but rather cover part of the cost. There is usually out of pocket cost for specialist care. In most cases we can estimate what your out of pocket cost is for the treatment; please understand that this is only an estimate. After the claim is submitted and finalized by your insurance, the difference is billed to you. Depending on the network this can take many months to complete.
Regardless of whether we participate in your insurance plan or not, you are ultimately responsible for the cost. How insurance applies to oral surgery
