Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, we do! We are happy to submit a claim to your Insurance Company, and we only charge you for the portion which is not covered by Insurance. We do ask for a credit card number, to be kept on file, so that any portion not covered by insurance can be charged directly to your credit card.

We accept all insurance plans; private, employee, as well as government coverage.

Tooth Suite does request payment in full for your portion of your bill at the time of service. We can arrange for you to prepay towards future treatment. We also work with you to prioritize a treatment plan that YOU choose, and one that is best for YOU. We do our best to help you understand what payment is due at each visit. Please feel free to call us if you have questions.

Benefits change from time to time, so it’s important to make sure you know what your plan covers. As a result, we cannot provide you with a guaranteed estimate unless we have submitted a pre-treatment estimate prior to your treatment.

Our estimates are based on the most recent information we have on file. If you’re concerned about exactly what costs you’ll be responsible for, simply ask about our Pre-Treatment Estimate.

A Pre-Treatment Estimate gives you the exact cost of the treatment. Upon request, we’ll file this paperwork with your insurance provider prior to any work being done. While this may delay your treatment, you will know exactly what (if any) out-of-pocket costs you may be required to pay.

We base the patient portion of your bill on the most current data we have on file. However, there are a number of factors outside of our control that may result in additional costs such as:

• An individual or family deductible
• Treatment in another office prior to joining the Tooth Suite Family
• Visiting a specialist

It is important to note that insurance providers do not (and cannot in most cases) notify us of changes to your benefits. THEY ONLY NOTIFY YOU. If any of these situations apply to you, please let us know at the time we provide your estimate so that we can adjust accordingly

We invoice your insurance provider on your behalf as a courtesy. It is important for you to understand that your coverage is a legal contract between you and your insurance company.
Our office is not and cannot be a part of the legal contract. As a result, if your insurance does not pay us within 30 days, we reserve the right to request payment in full from you and ask that you collect the insurance funds that are due to you from your insurance company directly. While this is an extremely RARE occurrence, it does happen. You are ultimately responsible for all charges incurred in our office.

We normally require payment in full for your patient portion at the time of your treatment. We accept MasterCard, Visa, Direct Billing and Interac (Debit). Or if required, please discuss the option of financing your procedure so you can get the care you need today!

We are happy to put together a detailed treatment plan with the associated costs clearly outlined so that you can budget for each appointment accordingly. We can also rank treatments so that you can deal with the most pressing treatments right away, and deal with the not-so-pressing treatments over time.
