Investing In Your Smile Without Breaking The Bank
The cost of dental care is the number one reason people delay treatment. At Smile Santa Maria Dental, Dr. Issa believes that financial constraints shouldn’t force you to choose between your health and your budget.
We are committed to transparency. You will never be surprised by a bill in the mail. Before we start any treatment, we sit down with you, explain the costs, look at your insurance coverage, and map out a plan that makes sense for your wallet.
Flexible Plans With Cherry
We are excited to offer Cherry, a modern financing tool that makes saying “yes” to your health much easier.
Cherry allows you to split your treatment costs into smaller, manageable monthly payments.
- Fast approval: You can get approved in seconds with no hard credit check (so it won’t dent your credit score just to look).
- Flexible terms: Choose a payment schedule that works for you, often with 0% interest options available.
- Treat now, pay later: You can get the implant, crown, or emergency care you need today and pay for it over time.
Insurance? We Fight For You.
Dental insurance can be confusing. Deductibles, annual maximums, and “usual and customary” fees. Our administrative team in Santa Maria, CA are experts at navigating this system. We work hard to maximize your benefits. We will file the claims on your behalf, track them, and fight to make sure your insurance company pays what they owe. We provide estimated copays upfront so you know exactly what your portion will be before you sit in the chair.
Other Financing Options
Everyone’s financial situation is different, so we provide multiple ways to pay. In addition to Cherry, we also work with:
- CareCredit: A long-standing healthcare credit card that offers interest-free financing terms.
- Citi health card: Another flexible option to help manage out-of-pocket healthcare expenses.
Payment Methods
For your portion of the payment (copays or non-covered services), we accept:
- Visa
- MasterCard
- Discover
- Cash and checks
Payment is due at the time of service unless prior arrangements have been made.
Monthly Plans For Orthodontics
Straightening your teeth is a journey that takes time, and paying for it should reflect that. For our clear aligner and orthodontic patients, we offer monthly payment plans. This allows you to spread the cost of your smile transformation over the course of your treatment. Contact our office for a consultation today!
