Finding the closest dentist who’s affordable

At our practice, we understand that many patients face financial challenges when it comes to affording dental care, often saying, “I need to find the closest dentist near me who is also affordable.” We believe that you should never sacrifice high-quality care even while on a budget. That’s why we offer multiple financial options that make our dental services more affordable. You also may be searching for a dentist office nearby that takes insurance. We accept most insurance providers, filing claims on patients’ behalf and ensuring that they receive the most coverage possible. However, even if you’ve found a dentist office nearby that accepts insurance, there may be outstanding charges after your benefits are applied. In this case, you may qualify for flexible financing through CareCredit, which allows you to pay the balance over several months. CareCredit is subject to credit approval. We also offer the Ideal Dental Plan discount program. With Ideal Dental Plan, you can receive savings between 20–80 percent on dental services. Taking care of your teeth can be affordable. If you’ve wanted to find the closest dentist in South Lamar who accommodates budget-conscious patients, your search is over. Ideal Dental South Lamar provides affordable rates and strives to beat our competitors’ prices. During your visit, our team members are happy to discuss our payment plans, discount options, and your insurance details. Give us a call at (512) 337-8226 for more information.
