Understanding Your Dental Benefits
Shouldn't Be Complicated.

Yes. We accept and file claims for almost all standard PPO dental insurance plans. As an out-of-network provider dedicated to uncompromising clinical standards, we handle all administrative paperwork and submit electronic claims directly to your insurer so your allowable reimbursement checks come directly to you.

Most PPO insurance policies provide generous out-of-network reimbursement allowances. You pay for your appointment at the time of service, and our team immediately submits detailed clinical documentation, digital imaging, and diagnostic codes to your insurance company. Your carrier then processes the claim and reimburses you directly according to your specific plan's fee schedule.

Northwest Portland Dental proudly accepts Oregon Health Plan (OHP) and Medicaid patients. Our team can help you understand your available dental benefits, covered services, and any potential out-of-pocket costs before treatment.

For services that may not be covered by OHP, we can also discuss additional payment options so you can make an informed decision about your dental care.

Remaining independent allows our clinicians to allocate full 60-minute appointments, utilize leading-edge biocompatible materials, and diagnose treatments based solely on your oral health needs rather than insurance company fee restrictions or arbitrary procedural denials.

Always. Prior to scheduling any restorative or major procedure, our treatment coordinator provides a comprehensive, transparent treatment summary detailing every fee so you experience zero unexpected billing surprises.

Yes. Health Savings Accounts (HSA) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) can be used directly for all clinical services, copays, restorative care, and the annual Membership Savings Plan fee.
