Welcome to Amp Orthodontics & Kids Dental! We’re thrilled to care for your family’s smiles and want to make your experience as seamless as possible. To help you navigate your financial options and responsibilities, here’s a summary of our financial policies.

Flexible Payment Options

Payment for services, including deductibles and copayments, is due at the time of service unless other arrangements have been made prior to treatment.To make dental and orthodontic care accessible to all families, we accept a variety of payment methods, including:

  • Cash, debit cards, and credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, American Express).
  • Personal checks (subject to a $30 fee for any returned checks).
  • Patient financing options through a trusted third-party provider, offering convenient monthly payments to fit your budget.
  • For orthodontic care, we offer flexible, interest-free internal payment plans, which can include adjusted down payments and customized monthly payments to suit your family’s budget. Our team will work with you to create a payment plan that works best for your needs. 

Insurance Benefits

We accept many PPO dental insurance plans and are happy to file your claims electronically as a courtesy. While we work hard to maximize your benefits, it’s important to remember:

  • Dental insurance is a contract between you and your insurance provider. Any coverage estimates provided are just that—estimates and not guarantees of payment. The final determination of benefits and payments is made by your insurance company after the claim is processed.
  • You are responsible for any charges not covered by your plan, including deductibles, copayments, or services deemed ineligible.

To help expedite claims, please provide your current insurance information at every visit. If there’s an overpayment resulting in a credit balance, we’re happy to apply it toward future visits or issue a refund upon request.

Financial Responsibility

  • For Parents or Legal Guardians: The individual requesting treatment for a child is responsible for all fees incurred, regardless of custody arrangements.
  • If someone other than the responsible party will be bringing the child to their appointment, please make payment arrangements with our office ahead of time to avoid any delays.
  • Missed Payments: Balances older than 90 days may incur a $25 monthly late fee for every month the balance remains unpaid.
  • If your account requires collections, additional fees (such as attorney’s fees or collection agency charges) may apply.

Important Insurance Facts

Dental insurance is designed to assist with the cost of care, but it doesn’t always cover all services. To better understand your benefits:

  • We recommend contacting your insurance carrier directly to confirm coverage details.
  • Be aware that certain procedures, such as X-rays or fluoride treatments, may be subject to frequency limitations.
