We’ve listed the questions patients most frequently ask to provide helpful general information about the services The Delta Dentist provides.
We accept and will bill all insurance plans on your behalf, but benefits vary with each carrier and are often limited in our part of the world. Unfortunately, just how it is in the Alaskan Bush country. However, we advise that you contact your insurance before your appointment. If there isn’t an in-network dentist within 100 miles of Delta Junction, they may offer in-network coverage for your treatment, so give them a call!
Yes we do! New patients are always welcome at The Delta Dentist and we look forward to seeing you soon.
We do and will do our best to see you, but please understand availability is limited by our scheduled appointments. If possible, we always recommend calling ahead to schedule.
We do all kinds of extractions, including wisdom teeth, but cost varies depending on their complexity. A more precise estimate is provided after an examination and x-rays.
The components of a cleaning usually include an exam, necessary x-rays, patient specific cleaning, and fluoride. With so many factors, and each patient’s unique situation, quoting exact cost is challenging. However, with an exam and x-rays, you will know exactly what the costs will be.
Today most private insurance doesn’t pay as much as we’d like, and the best insurance is usually through the employer’s company plans. Regrettably, there are no private, non-employer sponsored insurance companies that offer policies with much value. In this situation, many patients in this situation, depending on monthly premiums and benefits, choose to pay for their dental care. If your employer offers a choice of dental insurance options, give us a call and we’ll help you review them to find the best fit for you and your family.
We do and for all ages! For cases that are especially complex, we partner with different orthodontic providers in Fairbanks and will refer you to them for a consultation.
Of course – they belong to you and we’ll send them wherever they need to go. If you need another office to send us your records, they will have you sign a Records Release form to be HIPAA compliant. Similarly, we’ll have you sign our Records Release form before sending them to your desired location.
In many cases yes, but it depends on the nature of the cleaning and other services provided. We’re happy to discuss your situation, just give us a call!
