Bring a photo ID, your insurance card, and a list of medications. Arriving a few minutes early gives you time to complete paperwork and ask questions.

Patients in Riverbank, CA, can complete the forms at home or at the office. Submitting them early helps Dr. Brent Bell and his team prepare for your visit.

Dental Care Payment Options

We deliver the finest dental care for our patients.

We are committed to providing quality and affordable dental health care for your whole family. While payment is required at the time services are performed, other financial arrangements are available when extensive dental care is necessary, or when the dentistry performed exceeds your budget or insurance benefits. We will be sensitive to your financial circumstances within the framework of sound business practices. You have multiple options for payment available. For your convenience we accept cash, check, major insurance, Visa, Mastercard, American Express and Discover.

For larger treatment plans we are pleased to accept several financing options, including: Cherry, CareCredit, and Proceed. Whatever option you choose, we will work with you to fit quality care into your budget by financial arrangements or by staging treatment over time. Like most things do not be afraid to communicate your situation. Read below to learn more!

Please understand that dental insurance is a benefit and that you are ultimately responsible for all charges. In addition, if you have had a change in your insurance coverage, it is your responsibility to inform the front desk staff of these changes so that our records may be updated.

Because insurance policies vary, we can only estimate your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of insurance contracts. Your estimated patient portion (co-payment) must be paid at the time of treatment. As a service to our patients, we will bill insurance companies for treatment.

At all times, you can be confident that we will always provide you with our best services without regard to the limitations imposed by your insurance coverage. To do otherwise would violate our contract with you.

If you have any questions, our front office staff will be glad to assist you.
