Emergency Policy

We maintain a 24-hour answering service at 814-868-5411 for patients of record. We believe emergency care is our responsibility to accept and will treat emergencies at the earliest possible time.

Payment Policy

Committed to providing you with the best possible care, and we are pleased to discuss our professional fees with you at any time. Your clear understanding of our Financial Policy is important to our professional relationship. Please ask if you have any questions about our fees, this policy, or your responsibility. Payment is due at the time of service. We accept insurance payment  for their portion of the fee and will do our best to give an estimate of the patient portion. We accept cash, checks, and most major credit cards.

New Patient Exam Policy

We schedule non-emergency, new patients for an initial exam, which includes a full periodontal (gum) evaluation, digital x-rays, oral cancer screening, and overall dental oral health evaluation. It is the patients responsibility to complete the New Patient Registration at least 2 weeks prior to the scheduled appointment. A cleaning appointment will be scheduled after the new patient exam is completed. This overall visit will be approximately 60 minutes. New patient same day cancellations or no shows will not be rescheduled.
