5 Commonly Asked Questions about Dental Payment Programs

We understand that only some have dental insurance, whether due to cost, personal choices, or other reasons. For many, the expense of dental insurance can seem daunting, especially when balancing other financial responsibilities. Additionally, some may need access to employer-sponsored plans, and individual policies can be costly or offer limited coverage.

A dental payment plan allows you to get treatment now and pay later. Instead of paying your treatment upfront, a dental payment plan will enable you to get dental care with manageable monthly payments. 

Several dental payment plans are available. Our office has partnered with Cherry to provide you with the best possible care. To qualify for Cherry, you must be a US resident and 18 years or older. 

Your payment is due on the specific day of the month that you selected when setting up your payment plan. You can find out the due date of your payment by checking out the Cherry patient portal. This is still the same portal you’ll use to make your payment. The payments can be made through ACH electronic transfer from your debit card, credit card, or checking account. It’s vital to note that pre-paid debit and credit cards attract a 2.99% processing fee. However, checking accounts and debit card payments have no processing fees.
