Excellent periodontal care should never be hindered by financial concerns.  We strive to work together with our patients, informing them of our financial options.  Our office accepts cash, checks, and all major credit cards.  Care Credit, a financial program that extends 12­ months interest­ free payments to the patient is also accepted.  Unless payment arrangements have been approved in advance payment is due at the time services are rendered. We are pleased to process your insurance claim for your reimbursement. Dr. Britten’s relationship is with you, not your insurance company. Filing insurance claims for reimbursement to the patient is a courtesy that we extend to our patients.  Our financial coordinator will be happy to file a complimentary benefit analysis for treatment that has been proposed.

Please assist us at the time of your first visit to our office by providing the following information:

• Your referral slip (if you have one), health history and registration forms
• Any X­rays from your referring dentist (if given), including any panoramic X­ray taken within the past six months
• A list of medications you are currently taking
• Your dental insurance card, if insured

Please arrive approximately ten minutes prior to your consultation so that we can verify any information. A parent or guardian must accompany patients under 18 to this consultation appointment.

Dr. Britten and his team strive to render excellent dental care to our patients.  Our practice firmly believes that a good doctor/patient relationship is based upon understanding and good communication.  When an appointment is scheduled, that time has been set aside for you and when it is missed, that time cannot be used to treat another patient.

We require that you give our office 48 hours notice in the event that you are unable to keep your scheduled appointment.

A cancellation fee equal to the value of your appointment will apply to patients that miss 3 or more appointments in a 12 month period.  Patients will be required to prepay for all future dental appointments and all cancellation fees will apply.

Please note, all Monday appointments need to be changed by 12:00PM on Thursday.
