Our Mission Statement
To educate and provide high quality care in a pleasant, comfortable environment. To achieve and maintain optimum oral health that will last a lifetime.

Appointments
We know you have many choices when choosing a dentist. Therefore, we have made requesting an appointment a simple process via our website. Once made, your scheduled appointment time has been reserved specifically for you. We request 24 hours notice if you need to reschedule or cancel your appointment. We are aware that unforeseen events sometimes require missing an appointment. After missing your second appointment without giving us 24 hours notice, you will be charged an additional fee.

Emergencies
Emergencies do occur from time to time, so our office offers assistance when necessary. You may contact one of the doctors for after hours care by calling the office at 703-365-0230 . The doctor on call will respond immediately to take care of your dental concerns.

Insurance and Billing
We participate with the following dental carriers. However, we urge you to contact your carrier for final determination of our participation with your particular plan. As a courtesy to our patients, we gladly file your claims to your insurance carrier (some restrictions may apply).

Our office is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits. Because insurance policies vary greatly, we can only ESTIMATE your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of insurance contracts. Your estimated patient portion must be paid at the time of service. As a service to our patients we will file your claim for services and allow 45 days for them to render payment. After 60 days you are responsible for the entire balance, paid in full. If you have any questions, our courteous team is always available to assist you.

For our patients with dental insurance, as a courtesy to you we are happy to file your claim. Upon your request, we will file a predetermination for any dental treatment that we deem necessary. Any predetermination received from your insurance company is not a guarantee of payment. The estimated portion is due in full at the time services are rendered.

Your insurance plan is an agreement between you and your insurance company. If your insurance company fails to make payment on your claim, then the balance will become yours after 60 days. If payment is made on your claim and it is less than we originally estimated, then the remaining balance, in full, will become your responsibility.

We firmly believe that your insurance company does not have any right to decide what course of treatment is best for you. Their decisions about your care are not always up to our standard of care, and we refuse to neglect you, our patient, because of this. If you have any questions regarding this policy, please feel free to contact our office.

Your First Visit
To start you on the road to a lifetime of healthy teeth and gums, our doctors will review your medical and dental history and perform a thorough clinical and periodontal examination. We ask that you please obtain and bring any x-rays with you to your appointment to avoid additional expense. Otherwise, we will take any necessary x-rays so that we may provide a comprehensive diagnosis. If you are having an immediate problem, we will work with you to diagnose and rectify the condition.

After reviewing your x-rays, we will discuss with you your current condition and the underlying causes for any problems that exist. The education process that begins with your first visit will help you understand strategies for addressing the current and future health of your teeth and gums. These strategies include restoration of teeth and treatment of gum tissue and bone if necessary. We will establish an ongoing care program in which you are an active participant in protecting your dental health.
