No Medicaid Plans Accepted
No Medicaid plans accepted.
Soni Smiles does not participate in Medicaid dental plans.
Patients enrolled in both Medicare and Medicaid should contact our office to confirm whether their separate Medicare dental plan is accepted. Medicaid benefits cannot be used at Soni Smiles.
Our team can also explain available self-pay and financing options.
How Dental Insurance Works
Many dental insurance policies group covered procedures into preventive, basic, and major services. However, benefit categories and payment rules vary, particularly among Medicare Advantage dental plans.
Your insurer determines which procedures qualify for coverage, along with any applicable limits, copayments, deductibles, or other restrictions.
Preventive Care
Depending on your policy, preventive benefits may include:
- Dental examinations
- Routine cleanings
- Dental X-rays
- Periodic oral evaluations
Regular visits let your dentist monitor changes in your oral health and recommend care when necessary.
What If My Insurance Doesn’t Cover My Treatment?
If your plan excludes a procedure or you do not have any dental insurance, our team can explain the payment arrangements currently offered.
Options may include:
- Self-pay
- CareCredit financing
- Cherry financing
- Lending Club financing
- The Healthy Smile Club savings plan
Financing is subject to approval and applicable terms. Ask our office which options are available for your proposed treatment.
Choosing a Dentist Who Accepts Your Insurance
A dentist may participate with an insurance company without being in-network for every plan that company offers.
Before scheduling, confirm the specific plan, provider network, covered procedures, and expected patient costs. This is particularly important for Medicare Advantage plans, where dental benefits can differ substantially.
