Dental Insurance
We are in-network with Delta Dental Premier and the Anthem BC/BS FEP Blue, Complete and Grid+ Networks.
We accept all insurances as long as they are a PPO policy and allow the patient to go out-of-network. You would only be responsible for the difference between what we charge and what the insurance pays.
Our team understands that it can be a challenge to try to figure out what your insurance covers, how benefits apply to your treatment, and what your out-of-pocket cost will be. But you don't have to figure it out yourself, because we're always available to answer your questions. Our knowledgeable team will work with you and your insurance company to ensure that you receive the maximum benefit your entitled to and that there are no surprises when your treatment's finished.
If you have any questions about dental insurance, please don't hesitate to contact our Chesapeake dental office, and a member of our team will be happy to help you find the answers you need.
If you’re an adult and you want to correct crooked or crowded teeth, you have options. Using invisible braces at our Chesapeake, VA dental office, we can address these limited alignment issues without the need for metal braces.
At Bennett A.Thomas, DDS and Associates, we offer ClearCorrect and Smart Moves invisible braces. Both are similar to Invisalign using the same technology and clear plastic aligners to move your teeth. But ClearCorrect and Smart Moves tend to be less expensive than Invisalign, and ClearCorrect is produced here in the US.
Limited orthodontic treatment involves wearing customized trays that move your teeth progressively into the desired position. We start by taking digital impressions of your teeth that our dentists use to plan your treatment, and this plan is used to create a customized series of aligners.
We instruct you to wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before moving to the next set in the series. You will repeat this process every two weeks until you use all your aligners and your treatment is complete.
Treatment with invisible braces has many benefits when compared to metal brackets and wires. The trays are crystal clear, so most people won’t notice you’re wearing them. They’re also removable so you can eat your favorite foods and brush and floss easily. Just be sure to wear the trays for at least 22 hours a day, and you may be able to complete your treatment in as little as 12 to 15 months.
