Dr. Butz personally tends to every patient.
Patient Information
Thank you for choosing our office for your dental needs.
Please bring completed patient registration, general consent forms and HIPPA acknowledgement forms, which are available for download under the “online forms” tab.
To become an established patient in the practice, you will receive a full series of x-rays (unless you have current and appropriate images available) and a comprehensive oral examination by Dr. Butz. Your first visit will help us get acquainted , allow us to carefully evaluate your teeth, and learn about your needs and desires for dental treatment.
Insurance
The office works with all types of dental insurance, except the HMO type plan where you are required to go to someone on a list. We will work with you to understand and maximize your insurance coverage and benefits. As insurance policies vary, we can estimate your coverage but cannot guarantee coverage or payment due to the complexities of insurance contracts. As a service to our patients, we will submit your claims to the insurance company. Your estimated patient portion must be paid at the time of service. However, you are responsible for any amounts not covered by insurance for whatever reason. Please contact the office for more specific details.
Scheduling
We are available to answer questions or schedule an appointment during office hours: 8-5 M-Th. Your scheduled appointment time has been reserved specifically for you. We require 24 hours notice of change/cancellation (emergencies and unforeseen events excepted of course). After missing appointments a broken appointment fee will be assessed.
Financial Policies
For your convenience, we accept major credit cards, Care Credit, checks, cash. Payment is due at the time services are rendered, unless insurance coverage and prior arrangement has been made.
