We want to make sure that all patients at Advanced Dentistry receive a warm welcome, whether it’s their first or 50th time visiting us! We’re incredibly honored to hear that you’ve chosen us to take care of all of your dental care needs. Below, you will find all the information you need to be prepared for a visit to our dental office. This includes patient forms to fill out, financing options for treatment, and what to expect during your first visit.
Your First Visit
When you first walk into our dental office, you’ll be warmly greeted and asked to fill out necessary new patient paperwork. If you’ve already filled it out, simply hand it in to our front desk and have a seat. In a few minutes, we’ll call you in and invite you to tour our establishment, start your general exam, take a series of photos that help the doctor diagnose and show you what is going on in your mouth. We will also take a scan of your teeth to determine a starting point of where your mouth is now. This can be used for patient education, invisalign simulations, to measure the amount of wear on your teeth, and much more. At the exam, the doctor will diagnose the type of cleaning you will need and then can help you get that scheduled.
Dental Insurance
Our office takes all PPO dental plans. Although we are not contracted with many plans, your PPO dental plan can still be used at our office for reimbursement on services and to maximize your benefits each year. What that means for you is that you typically would pay for services provided upfront, our team will then send claims on your behalf, and then your insurance will reimburse for those services, as they see fit.
Dr. Bailey is in-network with SOME of the following insurance:
- Cigna DPPO SA Plus
- United Healthcare PPO
If being in network is important to you, it is best that you call your insurance provider to verify if you are in network with Dr Bailey, specifically at her Coronado office.
Although dental insurance can be useful, we find that too many of the plans attempt to dictate the treatment that the doctors recommend and that our patients need. Please do not hesitate to give us a call to speak with someone regarding any and all insurance questions you may have.
Patient Forms
As part of the process of becoming a new patient, it’s important that we obtain as much relevant information as possible regarding your current oral and overall health. Being thorough allows us to provide the most personalized care possible. To download these files and fill them out on your own time, follow the links below!
