“They quoted me $1,250 for a crown and charged me $1,250. After my last dentist, that alone is worth the drive.”
“Chipped a front tooth on a Saturday morning. Seen at 10, rebuilt by 11, and you cannot tell which tooth it was.”
“Nine years since my last cleaning and nobody made me feel bad about it. We just started with the tooth that hurt.”

We run your benefits before the appointment and confirm the exact figure in writing at the visit. If it comes back different from this panel, the written one is the one you pay.
About an hour, start to door.
Nobody asks you for a decision until the last ten minutes of this, and nothing gets scheduled that you did not agree to.
- 0 min
You arrive
Two forms, both short. Marcus has already run your benefits, so nobody asks you to guess at your own plan.

X-rays and photos
Digital, so they are on the screen a few seconds later. If you had recent ones taken elsewhere we will use those instead.

We turn the screen around
You see your own teeth at full size and we point at the thing we are talking about. No chart shorthand, no lecture about flossing.
This is the part patients tell us nobody else does.

The number, written down
Everything we found, sorted into what needs doing now and what can wait. Each line has a price on it and your share beside it.

You decide, or you do not
Plenty of people leave with a cleaning and a piece of paper and book the rest later. That is a normal first visit here.
Come in tense, leave calm.

Dental benefits and billing, eleven years
2015licensedThe posted price was the final price 312 times out of 318.
Every written plan we quoted in the last ninety days, checked against what the patient was actually billed at the end. Six came in under the quote because the work turned out to be smaller than the x-ray suggested. None came in over.
Each one checked against what the patient was actually billed at the end of the work.

Anything that would change a number gets shown to you on the screen and re-quoted in writing first. Nothing is added at checkout.
I forgot I was at a dentist. Quiet room, warm light, and they told me the price before anything happened.
Two implants and I was never once rushed or upsold. They talked me out of a crown I did not need.
My kids ask when we get to go back. To the dentist. I still cannot believe it.
Asked and answered.
Anything not here, call or text (818) 555-0164 and a person picks up.
What if I do not have dental insurance?
You get the same posted prices everyone else gets. The Healthy Start plan is built for exactly this: $349 a year covers two cleanings, two exams, all routine x-rays, and 20 percent off everything else.
Do you take my insurance?
We are in network with Delta Dental PPO, Cigna PPO, Aetna PPO, Guardian, and MetLife, and we file the claim for you either way. We check your specific benefits before your first visit and tell you the real number, not a range.
Will it hurt?
Most of what we do does not hurt at all once you are numb, and we tell you honestly when something will be uncomfortable instead of pretending it will not be. If you are anxious, say so when you book and we will slow the whole visit down.
How much does a cleaning actually cost?
A new patient exam with x-rays and a cleaning is $129 flat. A routine cleaning after that is the same, unless your gums need the deeper cleaning, which we would show you on the x-ray first rather than spring on you at checkout.
I have not seen a dentist in years. Am I going to get a lecture?
No. We start with whatever is bothering you, tell you what we found in plain English, and write down what it costs. Nothing gets scheduled that you did not agree to.
Can I split up the cost of something bigger?
Yes. CareCredit and Cherry both run monthly payment plans with fast approval, and we tell you the monthly number before you apply for either one.
A plan for patients without dental cover.
Your cleanings and exams for the year at one price, plus a standing discount on anything else you need. No claims, no deductible, no annual maximum.
Compare the plansThe monthly number, before you apply.
Anything on the fee table can be split across CareCredit and Cherry. Approval takes a couple of minutes at the front desk and it does not change what the work costs. Here is the arithmetic on the three we are asked about most.
Same-visit crown
over 24 months
Dental implant
over 24 months
Clear aligners
over 24 months
Figures are the providers' own published promotional terms against the prices posted on this site. Your approved term and rate come from them, not from us, and we will not send you to either one without telling you the monthly figure first.
Pick a time. We handle the rest.
Send the form and we text you back the same day with times that fit. No phone tag unless you want it.
