How We Help You Maximize Your Benefits
Navigating insurance jargon like “deductibles,” “annual maximums,” and “co-insurance” can be overwhelming. At 703 Dental, we take the guesswork out of the process.
Complimentary Insurance Verification
Before your first treatment, our team performs a thorough verification of your benefits. We contact your insurance carrier directly to understand exactly what is covered, what your remaining deductible is, and how much of your annual maximum is available. This allows us to provide you with the most accurate cost estimates possible.
Direct Claims Filing
You won’t have to worry about messy paperwork or mailing claims to your insurance company. We utilize electronic claims processing to submit your information directly to your provider. This ensures faster processing times and reduces the likelihood of errors that could delay your reimbursement.
Proactive Treatment Planning
Most dental insurance plans have an “annual maximum”—the total amount they will pay in a single calendar year. If you require extensive dental work, we can often phase your treatment across two benefit years to help you get the most out of your insurance coverage without paying excessive out-of-pocket costs.
Understanding Your Dental Insurance Coverage
It is important to remember that dental insurance is not designed to cover 100% of all costs; rather, it is meant to be an aid in maintaining your oral health. Most PPO plans follow a “100-80-50” structure:
-
100% Coverage: Usually applies to preventative care, such as routine exams, cleanings, and X-rays.
-
80% Coverage: Usually applies to basic procedures, such as dental fillings or simple extractions.
-
50% Coverage: Usually applies to major procedures, such as dental crowns, bridges, or dentures.
At 703 Dental, we strive to keep our fees competitive so that even the “50% coverage” portion remains affordable for our Woodbridge families.
Flexible Financing Options for Every Budget
Even with excellent insurance, there are often out-of-pocket expenses for major restorative or cosmetic work. We believe every patient deserves a path to a beautiful smile, which is why we offer several flexible financing options.
Cherry Financing: Treat Now, Pay Later
We are proud to offer Cherry Financing at our Woodbridge location. Cherry is a “buy now, pay later” solution designed specifically for health and wellness.

-
FSA & HSA Accounts: If you have a Flexible Spending Account or Health Savings Account through your employer, you can use those pre-tax dollars for your dental care at 703 Dental.
Options for Patients Without Insurance
If you do not currently have dental insurance, you are not alone—and you are still welcome at 703 Dental! We offer transparent, competitive self-pay rates for our Woodbridge community. Many of our uninsured patients find that by using our Cherry financing options, the cost of a healthy smile is much more manageable than they initially thought.
We also frequently run New Patient Specials that include an exam, X-rays, and a cleaning for a low, flat fee. This is a great way to “jumpstart” your oral health without a large financial commitment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does 703 Dental accept my PPO plan?
Yes, we accept the vast majority of PPO plans. Unlike HMO plans that restrict you to a small list of providers, PPO plans allow you to see the dentist of your choice. We will help you maximize your “in-network” or “out-of-network” PPO benefits.
What if my insurance says I'm "out-of-network"?
Many PPO plans still provide excellent coverage even if a dentist is “out-of-network.” Often, the difference in cost is minimal. We will perform a free benefits check to show you exactly what your out-of-pocket cost would be before you commit to treatment.
Can I use my insurance for cosmetic dentistry?
Most insurance plans do not cover purely cosmetic procedures like teeth whitening or veneers. However, if a procedure has a functional benefit (like a crown used to fix a broken tooth), it may be partially covered. We will check this for you!
Is there a credit check for the Cherry payment plan?
Cherry does a “soft” credit check, which means your credit score will not be impacted by the application. This makes it a great option for many patients.
