A missing tooth can cause consequences that are undesirable and even harmful such as chewing habits, teeth shifting, and other bite issues. To replace a tooth, the most common recommendation is a bridge, partial denture, or dental implant. All options are always best discussed with your dentist.

A root canal is necessary when the tooth is severely decayed or infected. When a root canal is done, the pulp is removed, the tooth's canal is disinfected, and a special dental filler is used to seal off the tooth. We then place a crown over the treated tooth.

Dental amalgam is a filling material that is used to restore damaged or decayed teeth. It is the most common used filling. There has been no health disorder or illness that has been found to be linked to amalgam filling. If you are unsure that amalgam is right for you, not problem. At iSmiles Dentistry, we use composite filling. This is a white filling that looks like your tooth.

We have partnerships with the majority of PPO dental insurance providers. However, we do not take DMO/HMO, Medicaid, or Medicare.

Dental insurance is not a comprehensive solution that covers all dental care expenses required to maintain good oral health. Rather, it is designed to assist with the financial costs associated with dental care. Having dental insurance can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket expenses by offering discounted treatment fees. There are various dental insurance plans available, and the level of coverage you receive depends on the plan your employer has purchased. Insurance companies offer thousands of plans, and your employer chooses a dental plan that fits their needs. Therefore, it is your responsibility to understand your plan's details. While we are happy to help as much as possible, we cannot be expected to know all the specifics of the plan chosen by your employer.

It is possible that your dental plan may have exceptions, exclusions, or downgrades based on the specific terms of your plan. However, please note that this does not necessarily mean that the treatment is unnecessary or that we will not treat you. Any limitations or issues with your dental plan are typically between you, your employer, and the insurance company. At iSmiles, we are committed to helping you make the most of your insurance benefits and minimizing your out-of-pocket expenses to the best of our abilities. Our team will work with you to understand the details of your dental plan and explore all available options to help you receive the care you need.

The amount of coverage you receive from your dental insurance plan depends on several factors, such as the yearly maximum, deductible, and your employer's chosen coverage for different types of procedures. Dental procedures fall into various categories, including Preventive (such as cleanings and exams), Basic (such as fillings), Periodontics (such as deep cleanings and gum surgeries), Major (such as crowns and dentures), Endodontics (such as root canals), and Implants. Your dental insurance plan covers each of these categories at a different percentage, as dictated by the terms of your plan. Our insurance team will review your dental insurance plan and work towards maximizing your reimbursement. However, please note that you are ultimately responsible for any outstanding account balance.
