Financial Policy

Please understand that payment of your bill is considered a part of your treatment plan. If you are unable to pay in full at the time of treatment, please inform the front desk personnel so that we may discuss the financing options available to you. Upon credit approval, you may be eligible for a payment plan.
  • We accept cash, checks, CareCredit, Lending Club, and most major credit cards.
  • Full payment is due at time of services.
  • Major services may require a deposit equal to at least one half of the estimated patient portion at the time the appointment is made.
  • Patient balances that go unpaid for 30 days or more may incur interest charges of 1.5% per month, as well as legal fees for collection services.
  • Subtle Smiles charges $25 for returned checks.
  • Subtle Smiles charges $25 for appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice, unless prior arrangements have been made.

Regarding Insurance:
We may accept assignment of insurance benefits on your first visit to Subtle Smiles. This means that your insurance company will pay instead of you. However, your policy is a contract between you and the insurance company. Before filing a claim on your behalf, we will attempt to verify your coverage and calculate your deductible and co-payments as accurately as possible. All deductibles and co-payments are due at time of service unless prior arrangements have been made. You should be aware that your insurance company will not guarantee payment over the telephone. Regardless of what your insurance company decides to pay, you remain fully responsible for payment of your bill.
