  • Payment for services are due at the time of the visit unless other arrangements have been made. We accept cash, check, or identified credit cards. A service charge will be assessed on all returned checks. 
  • First time patients being treated on an emergency basis must pay in full at the time of service.
  • We accept most traditional insurance policies. Patients with dental insurance must take care of their estimated portion not covered by the insurance at the time of treatment. If payment has not been received from the insurance company within sixty days of the original filing, the patient will be asked to pay the balance due and pursue reimbursement from their carrier. 
  • We will file your insurance claims as a courtesy for you. Please be aware that some of the services provided may not be covered or may be considered above the “usual and customary.”

We will not allow you to reschedule a second appointment if your first appointment was broken. If you do not show up for any appointment, we reserve the right not to reschedule. Bryant Pediatric Dentistry will assess a rescheduling fee for any missed appointment.
  • In the case of an account balance in excess of 90 days, we reserve the right to turn you over to collections.
