Dental Insurance
Lake Forest Smiles accepts dental insurance plans, even for out-of-network coverage. If you have dental insurance, check with your provider to verify your benefits. However, as a courtesy, we file claims on your behalf. Please remember that we work with you to maximize your dental insurance benefits. But patients are responsible for all charges incurred—including any balance that is not covered through your dental plan.
For new patients, please bring your insurance card and completed patient forms to your first visit. Our new patient forms are conveniently located online.
Financing
CareCredit and LendingClub are third-party financing companies that help patients pay for health and wellness expenses. They cover the entire cost of a procedure at the time of your treatment, and you then make monthly installments. This service allows patients to receive all the care they need at once and then spread out the cost by making small monthly payments. Contact Lake Forest Smiles to learn more about our special financing offers, or to see if you qualify.
Affordable Dentistry in Lake Forest
We understand that many people avoid dental care because of the cost. However, quality dental care is an investment in your long-term health. Managing any oral health problems helps maintain a higher level of overall wellness. Professional dental care also helps keep your teeth looking great. Even paying out of pocket for preventive care can be worth it over the long run, saving you money and helping you avoid potentially invasive procedures to correct problems.
At Lake Forest Smiles, we accommodate the unique financial needs of each patient. If you need to discuss payment arrangements or have questions about your account, please contact our office by calling (847) 234-4800. Drs. Campbell and Schmidt have been providing elite dental care to the communities of Lake Forest, Lake Bluff, and Lincolnshire for more than 30 years. We welcome you to our practice.
