Dental Insurance in Arcadia & Temple City

Let’s help you understand your dental benefits.

 

Hey, we know insurance can be confusing!  That’s why we make it our job to help you before your visit.

Our insurance specialists will verify your plan, explain what’s covered, and let you know what your portion is, so that there are no surprises from our Arcadia dentists and Temple City dentists.

🔍 Do We Accept Your Dental Insurance?

Do you accept my dental insurance?

We accept most dental insurance with PPO dental plans. 

For some patients, their medical insurance plan do not include dental insurance. If you have question about your medical or dental plan, you should consult your plan administrator or insurance agent.

What about HMO plans?

We’re not in network with HMO plans, which usually assign you a dentist. If you’re unsure about your insurance plan, give us a call, and we’ll check for you!

Does my dental insurance plan cover major treatments?

Often yes, but coverage varies. Major treatments may require additional coverage or have policy limits.  There are many dental insurance companies in United States, and each company has many plans. We’ll check your plan and walk through what your specific plan covers.

What types of dental insurance plans do you accept?

What if I can’t find you listed in our dental insurance plan!

Parklane Dental might not be listed in the updated directory of your insurance plan. Our dental centers can also be listed under our Arcadia dentists and our Temple City dentists. If you have questions about your plan, call us to check!

What if I don’t have insurance or my plan isn’t accepted?

No problem! We offer special packages & deals (like our New Patient Special) and flexible payment plans like CareCredit and Sunbit financing to make care accessible.

🕒 How Insurance Verification Works

1️⃣ Share Your Insurance Information
 Before your appointment, have your dental insurance card available. By phone or by our online submission, we may ask for your insurance company, member ID, group number, and the primary subscriber’s information.

2️⃣We Check Your Benefits
Our team can check eligibility and available benefit information, including deductibles, annual maximums, and applicable plan limitations.

3️⃣ We Explain Your Estimated Costs
We’ll give you an estimate of what your insurer covers and what is your responsibility. You’ll never be surprised with unexpected charges!

Once your dentist recommends treatment, we can review your estimated insurance benefits and the portion you may need to pay. You’ll have an opportunity to ask questions before deciding how to proceed.

Please note: Benefit verification and treatment estimates are not guarantees of payment. Your insurer determines the final benefit when it processes your claim. You are responsible for amounts your plan does not pay.

💡 Common Questions About Dental Insurance

It is good practice to check your insurance coverage ahead of your visit! Be sure to send in your insurance information to us before your visit, or give us a quick call to ask your insurance questions!

What Will I Need to Pay?

Your estimated portion depends on your treatment and your plan’s benefits. It may include a deductible, copayment or coinsurance, and charges your plan does not cover.

We can help explain your estimate so you understand how your benefits may apply.

Will My Insurance Cover Exams, Cleanings & X-Rays?

Many dental plans include preventive benefits, but coverage and frequency limits vary. Your plan may also treat a routine cleaning differently from periodontal maintenance or other gum treatments.

We can check the benefits that apply to the care your dentist recommends.

Does Insurance Cover Crowns, Root Canals or Dental Implants?

Some plans contribute toward these treatments, while others limit or exclude coverage. Waiting periods, annual maximums, and other restrictions may apply. 

After your evaluation, our team can help review your benefits and, when appropriate, request a pretreatment estimate from your insurer.

Does Insurance Cover Invisalign or Braces?

Some dental plans include orthodontic benefits that may apply to braces or Invisalign. Coverage can depend on age limits, eligibility requirements, and a separate orthodontic lifetime maximum. 

Our team can help check your orthodontic benefits before you begin treatment.

What if my dental plan resets annually on January 1st?

For patients with an annual dental plan that resets on January 1st, your dental insurance benefits may reset on the January 1st. That means you may lose you unused benefits at the end of the year.
