The PPO math
What PPO patients usually pay
First visit with PPO
$0
with an active PPO plan
Plans covering preventive care at 100% make your exam, X-rays, and cleaning $0 out of pocket.
The new-patient visitNot on the in-network list?
Still welcome — most other PPO plans are seen out-of-network. You pay at the visit, we file your claim the same day, and your insurer reimburses you. We verify your plan first and give you an estimate beforehand.
Treatment beyond preventive
Your written plan shows the insurance share and your share, line by line — the transparent-pricing rule applies to insured care too.
How pricing works No insurance?
Two honest alternatives
The New Patient Special
$95
flat · or $0 with an active PPO plan
Exam, digital X-rays, and cleaning — one flat price, no insurance needed.
What's includedIn Line Member plan
$449/yr covers two cleanings and two exams with necessary X-rays, plus a member discount on treatment. A discount plan, not insurance — and the two are not mutually exclusive.
Membership details The 4-year care policy
We stand behind our work.
Treatment is covered for four years from completion. One condition: keep up with your routine recall visits.

Which dental insurance plans is In Line Dentistry in-network with?
In Line Dentistry is in-network with Aetna, Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Delta Dental (Premier and PPO), Guardian, Humana, MetLife and UnitedHealthcare. Most other PPO plans are welcome out-of-network: we verify your benefits before the visit and file the claim for you. With plans that cover preventive care at 100%, the first visit is $0.
What happens if In Line Dentistry is out-of-network for my PPO plan?
You're still welcome. If your plan is not one of the eight we're in-network with, you pay at the visit, we file your claim the same day, and your insurer reimburses you. We verify your plan first and give you an estimate beforehand, so you know where you stand before you ever sit in the chair.
How do you verify my insurance benefits before I come in?
Book online, or call or text the office, and share your insurance details — carrier and member ID is all we need to start. Our team checks your coverage with your carrier before you arrive, free and with no obligation. You then see what your plan covers and what, if anything, you'd owe — in writing, before any treatment starts.
What if I have an HMO plan or no dental insurance?
You're welcome either way. The new-patient visit is $95 flat for cash and HMO patients, or $0 out of pocket with an active PPO plan — exam, X-rays, cleaning and a written plan. The other alternative is the In Line Member plan: $449 a year covers two cleanings and two exams with necessary X-rays, plus a member discount on treatment. It's a discount plan, not insurance — and the two are not mutually exclusive.
How does insurance apply to treatment beyond the first visit?
The same way everything is priced here — in writing, first. Your written plan shows the insurance share and your share, line by line; the transparent-pricing rule applies to insured care too. Plans covering preventive care at 100% make the exam, X-rays and cleaning $0 out of pocket, and anything beyond that is shown with what your plan covers and what, if anything, you'd owe before treatment starts.
