Cost is one of the most common barriers preventing people from seeking necessary dental treatment. Whether you need a routine cleaning, root canal therapy, dental implants, or clear aligners, the price tag can feel overwhelming without the right financial support. Many patients delay or avoid treatment altogether, which often leads to more complex and expensive problems down the road.

At Trident Smiles, Dr. Shivam Patel and our team understand that dental health is an investment in your overall wellbeing. That is why we have partnered with leading financing companies and developed flexible payment solutions to help you receive the care you need without financial stress. From third-party financing options to convenient in-house payment plans, we work with you to find an arrangement that fits your budget and lifestyle.

Our commitment to accessible dental care extends beyond treatment to include transparent pricing and multiple payment pathways. We want you to feel confident and comfortable throughout your dental journey, knowing that quality care is within reach regardless of your financial situation.

Third-Party Financing Solutions

We partner with three trusted healthcare financing companies to provide you with flexible payment options that work for your financial situation. These partnerships allow you to spread the cost of dental treatment over time with manageable monthly payments.

Cherry offers fast approval decisions and flexible payment plans designed specifically for healthcare services. Many patients appreciate Cherry’s straightforward application process and competitive rates, which make larger treatments like dental implants or clear aligners more accessible. CareCredit is one of the most widely recognized healthcare credit cards, providing promotional financing options that can help you manage dental expenses with low or no interest during promotional periods. Alpheon Credit rounds out our financing partnerships with additional flexible terms and often features special promotional offers for qualifying procedures.

Each of these financing companies offers different terms and benefits, and our team can help you understand which option best suits your needs. The application process is typically quick and easy, and you can often receive approval within minutes. We can discuss your financing options during your consultation and answer any questions you may have about payment terms, interest rates, and monthly payment amounts.

In-House Payment Plans

For patients who prefer a more direct payment arrangement, we offer convenient in-house payment plans starting at just $30 per month. This option is particularly popular among younger patients and those without traditional dental insurance who prefer to manage their healthcare costs independently.

Our in-house plans are designed to be flexible and straightforward, with no complicated applications or credit checks required. You can charge payments directly to your credit card each month, making it easy to budget for dental care alongside your other monthly expenses. This payment structure is ideal for routine preventive care, minor restorative work, or spreading out the cost of more extensive treatments over time.

The benefit of our in-house payment plans is that they provide a direct relationship between you and our practice without involving third-party financing companies. We work with you to create a payment schedule that fits comfortably within your budget while ensuring you receive timely dental care. Whether you need ongoing treatment or want to maintain regular preventive visits, our in-house plans offer a simple, stress-free way to manage your dental expenses.

FAQS

What Insurance Do We Accept?

We are in-network providers with Delta Dental, which means patients with Delta Dental insurance can maximize their benefits when visiting our practice. For patients with other dental insurance plans, we accept all major insurance carriers as out-of-network providers. While you can still use your insurance benefits at our practice, the coverage amounts and reimbursement processes may differ from in-network care. Our knowledgeable team can help you understand your out-of-network benefits and will work with your insurance company to maximize your coverage.

 

How Does Dental Financing Work?

Dental financing allows you to receive the treatment you need today while paying for it over time through monthly installments. When you choose to finance your dental care through Cherry, CareCredit, or Alpheon, you complete a simple application that typically provides an approval decision within minutes. Once approved, you can use your credit line to pay for dental treatments, and then make monthly payments according to your chosen plan terms. Many financing options offer promotional periods with low or no interest, making them an affordable way to manage larger dental expenses like dental implants, clear aligner treatment, or comprehensive restorative work.
