Cost of Treatment & Financial Options
Once we have developed a treatment plan for your child, we can give you an estimate of the cost of the procedure. We’ll make sure that you fully understand the costs right from the beginning so that you are not caught off guard. You may be able to submit the procedure costs to your dental insurance for coverage. After the procedure is complete we are happy to submit the claim for you for possible reimbursement. We can also discuss other financial options that would fit within your budget.
What to Expect
Our team will greet you and your little one with a warm smile. If you haven’t already filled out the necessary paperwork, you’ll be asked to do so at this time. Once Dr. Maggie is ready for you, you’ll be called back to one of our treatment rooms. We’ll perform a thorough evaluation of your child’s mouth so that a proper diagnosis can be made before we discuss treatment options. Throughout the visit, we’ll make sure your child feels at home so that they feel comfortable coming back.
Patient Aftercare
Our caring team makes it one of their top priorities to take care of you and your little one before, during, and after the treatment. Once your child’s frenectomy is complete, we will give you aftercare advice for managing your little one’s discomfort as well as helping them calm down. We will also teach you some stretching exercises that can help your little one heal properly and prevent reattachment.
