    Insurance & Payment Options

    We accept most major insurance plans and offer flexible payment options to make quality oral surgery accessible. Our team will help you understand your coverage and maximize your benefits.

    Understanding Your Coverage

    Dental Insurance Coverage

    Most common oral surgery procedures are covered by dental insurance, though coverage varies by plan. Typical coverage ranges from 50-80% for major procedures.

    Routine tooth extractions
    Wisdom teeth removal
    Dental implant placement
    Bone grafting for implants
    Preventive and restorative procedures
    Associated anesthesia costs
    Biopsy and pathology
    Medical Insurance Coverage

    Medical insurance may cover oral surgery when it's medically necessary for your overall health. This often includes reconstructive and trauma-related procedures.

    Medically necessary jaw surgery
    TMJ surgery and joint replacement
    Sleep apnea surgery
    Facial trauma repair and reconstruction
    Tumor or cyst removal from jaw/facial bones
    Facial bone fractures
    Major pathology

    Dual Coverage Coordination

    In complex cases such as facial trauma from accidents, both medical and dental insurance can coordinate benefits. Medical insurance typically covers jaw repairs and reconstructive surgery, while dental insurance covers teeth restoration through implants or prostheses.

    Our experienced billing staff will file claims with both insurers and work to maximize your benefits, reducing your out-of-pocket expenses.

    Payment Plans

    Payment is expected at the time of service. We will provide a treatment estimate prior to your procedure so there are no surprises.

    Tips to Maximize Your Benefits

    Get Pre-Authorization

    We will submit your complex treatment plan to your medical insurers before your procedure to determine coverage and expected costs.

    Verify Network Status

    Confirm that Dr. Krajekian is in-network for your insurance plan. Out-of-network costs can be significantly higher.

    Coordinate Benefits

    Some procedures may qualify for both dental and medical coverage. Our team will help maximize your benefits.

    Important Note

    While we will verify your insurance benefits and file claims on your behalf, you are ultimately responsible for all fees regardless of insurance coverage. We strongly encourage you to contact your insurance provider directly to verify coverage details for your specific procedure. Our team is happy to provide the procedure codes needed for verification.
