Fees
While we provide our patients with the best skills, technology and service,
we charge only what the current BC fee guide allows. This makes it affordable
to get excellent dentistry!
A typical adult recall visit costs as follows:
| Recall exam |
$23.40 |
| 2 bitewing xrays |
$19.30 |
| 3 units scaling |
$88.50 |
| Polishing |
$31.90 |
| Fluoride |
$13.00 |
| Total |
$176.10 |
Please note that this is for a "typical" adult who comes in twice
a year for check ups. Some patients will require more than 2 units
of scaling, particularly if they have the onset of periodontal disease.
Before we do any major procedure we will give you a treatment plan outlining
the cost of what needs to be done. It is up to our patients to decide
if and when they want to have the treatment done.
Fees/Financial Policies
As our studio depends on reimbursement from the patients for the costs incurred in their care,
we have established the following financial policies
- Payment is required at the end of each and every appointment.
We accept cash, INTERAC, Visa and Mastercard
- We accept assignment of insurance benefits for major procedures only.
- For major dental work (crown& bridge, dentures etc.) we require full
co-payment at the time of your first appointment. For example if you are
covered 50% for a bridge, we require your 50% co-payment at your first appointment.
- New patients who come in for an emergency appointment must pay in full
for services rendered (no Cheques), as we cannot verify insurance coverage.
Your insurance company will later reimburse you.
- If you should need major dental work done, we will print you a treatment
plan which shows what needs to be done, what percentage your insurance company
will pay, and what percentage you will be responsible for.
