Accepted Insurance Plans
We proudly accept all PPO dental insurance plans and will file claims on your behalf to help maximize your benefits.
While we are not in-network with HMO or Medicaid plans, we’re happy to work with you to review out-of-network options and costs.
If you have questions about your specific insurance, please contact our office prior to your visit.
Flexible Payment Options
We make paying for dental care as easy as possible:
Cash, debit, or credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Amex)
CareCredit® financing available for qualified patients
Transparent treatment estimates provided before any service begins
Need help budgeting for more extensive care? We’ll work with you to create a personalized payment plan that fits your needs.
What to Expect as a New Patient
During your first visit, you’ll receive a full oral exam, digital X-rays (if needed), and a personalized consultation with Dr. Elena Opare, DDS. She’ll discuss your dental history, address any concerns, and walk you through your treatment options — with no pressure or sales talk.
If you're due for a cleaning, we’ll typically complete it during the same appointment unless other care is urgently needed.
Family-Friendly Care for All Ages
From toddlers to seniors, we welcome patients at every stage of life. Our team works hard to create a calm, educational, and respectful environment for children, teens, adults, and older adults alike.
