Financial Arrangements

We welcome and encourage frank discussion of services and fees prior to treatment in order to avoid misunderstandings. The financial obligation for the treatment we render to you is your responsibility. However, we will be pleased to assist you in submitting your completed claim form to your insurance company for reimbursement.

​We will provide you an up-to-date estimate for out-of-pocket costs for your treatment.

Possible Limitation On Your Coverage

Most insurance plans will not pay for the entire cost of your care. Your policy may include one or more of the following limitations:

  • A list of exclusions of certain procedures
  • A co-payment provision
  • A dollar limit on covered servicesA co-insurance clause
  • A table of allowance
  • A deductible clause
  • Any combination of the above

Insurance plans vary considerably. We suggest that you determine if any of these limitations apply to your particular contract. Some insurance contracts contain a table of allowances or a schedule of benefits. These tables are not fee schedules, although they may be described as such in your contract. They are actually lists of the amount toward the surgeon’s actual fees, which your insurance company will pay under the terms of the contract. The insurance companies will try to confuse you by calling their fee schedule – USUAL, CUSTOMARY, AND REASONABLE (UCR). In some cases, these amounts may be less than that of the actual charges.

​Should you wish to determine the benefits to which you are entitled under the provisions of your contract, we recommend that you contact your insurance company to obtain precise information about the extent of your coverage.

​Avoiding Misunderstandings

Our office takes the position that the determination of proper treatment is a matter to be decided between the doctor and the patient. Our office will assist you with predetermination of benefits and estimated expenses for the treatment. We will also furnish sufficient documentation to assist you in obtaining the benefit to which you are entitled. This policy is based upon the philosophy that the necessity, appropriateness, and quality of oral and maxillofacial surgery care are properly determined by knowledgeable professionals.

​Denial Of Benefits

Realizing the importance of health insurance we urge you to become familiar with your insurance contract and utilize its benefits. In the event that you do not receive the benefit you believe you are entitled to from you insurance carrier, we suggest you contact your carrier and your employee benefits representative to request the appropriate professional review. If we can be of assistance to you in these endeavors, we will make every effort to do so.

​Please bring your insurance information with you to the consultation or surgery so that we can expedite reimbursement.

Dr. Loveless and his team were amazing! I was a new patient and called to see if I could get in right away to remove a wisdom tooth. It was an emergency, and they got me in within the hour!! The staff through out my whole experience, from the front desk to the dental assistants, were GREAT!!!! The office was fresh and clean. I highly recommend Dr. Loveless if you’re looking for an oral surgeon.

I went to get my wisdom teeth removed a few days ago & i could not wait to leave a review. My experience was absolutely PHENOMENAL. I wish i could give them more stars. Everyone at the facility was nice, accommodating and very professional. The procedure was done very quickly and they even gave me Ted Drew’s afterwards! My recovery has been unbelievably easy & fast. I had all 4 wisdom teeth extracted and there was very little swelling. I’ve barely had to take any pain medication and i was even able to eat the next day! I’m convinced they are magicians because the entire experience was just so great it seemed unreal! I never leave reviews but I just had to after receiving such amazing treatment. They definitely live up to the reviews!

We were headed to Florida when my son came down with an abscessed tooth. Dr. Loveless was able to get us in and remove his tooth before our flight. I can’t thank Laurie enough for making what could be a scary experience for my 7 year old, a fun, pleasant one. I can’t express how thankful I am for her treating him like her own and making sure he was comfortable. She went above and beyond in my eyes and made this nervous mom rest a little easier. Thank you both!!!

“…we were happy to find somoeone that was caring…we will never forget the care and concern you showed to our mother”

Dr. Loveless was wonderful, kind, professional, and really made me feel comfortable. He is the kind of man you would want as your regular dentist for not only yourself, but for also your family, neighbors, former roommates twice removed (you get the picture lol). I was completely and utterly scared when I went in and he and the staff helped ease my fears. I didn’t feel anything, he worked quickly, and I left feeling really confident in his work. I hope I never need oral surgery again but if I do, I’m going to [him], hands down. I would absolutely recommend [him] to anyone. 🙂

Dr. Loveless,

Thank you for making my tooth extraction so quick and easy. I was expecting a lot of pain. Haven’t experienced any residual pain, either since I woke up the following morning. You should hang a shingle stating “painless Dentist”!! Also, your staff is so kind and attentive. I would definitely come back when needed, and recommend you to anyone in need. Though I don’t wish that pre-surgery pain on any person (or animal) for that matter!
