Your treatment options and fees will be thoroughly discussed at your consultation appointment.  PLEASE REMEMBER THAT DENTAL INSURANCE COMPANIES ARE NOT IN THE BUSINESS OF SAVING YOUR TEETH, WE ARE.  Insurance companies make their money by collecting a maximum amount in premiums while paying out a minimal amount of claims.  Most dental insurance plans have not increased their benefit maximums since their incepetion in the early 1970's.  Inflation has caused an increase in related fees, dental supplies, labor costs and lab fees  - even the cost of your annual insurance premium.  The benefits however have remained the same.  If the treatment option you select exceeds your available dental benefits, you will be offered several financial options prior to treatment being initiated.
