Insurance Information

Lockhart Dental is an in-network provider for Delta Dental Premier and Cigna. But, we accept assignments from most dental insurance companies and are happy to file with yours. At your first visit, we will verify your insurance information and determine a copay amount (if applicable). Some plans require payment upfront, followed by a reimbursement to the patient from the insurance provider. As insurance is a contract between the patient and the insurance company, Lockhart Dental does not track or verify your benefits. We strongly encourage you to contact your insurance company and familiarize yourself with the specifics of your plan.

Please be advised that payment is due at the time of service. This includes ALL co-payments, deductibles and full payment if you do not have Dental insurance. If you are unable to pay all at once, we have partnered with CareCredit to offer affordable financing. 

Dr. Lockhart recommends treatment based on maintaining your optimal dental health, and we would never recommend treatment based on insurance benefits and maximums. Contact us if you have any questions. We would be happy to work with you to ensure you can receive the dental care you need.
