What Impacts Teeth Cleaning Prices
Teeth cleaning costs depend on several factors that reflect the level of care needed for each patient.
- Time Needed: The time required for your cleaning depends on the amount of plaque or tartar present. For someone with minimal buildup, the cleaning will be quicker and less costly. In cases where a great amount of plaque or tartar has accumulated, the session may take longer, which can increase the price.
- Type of Cleaning: A standard cleaning is often more affordable since it focuses on routine maintenance. However, if gum disease or other complications are present, deep cleaning may be necessary, which involves more work and higher costs.
- Extra Services: Fluoride treatments, polishing, or other add-ons can increase the overall cost. These optional services are often recommended for long-term oral health benefits but are not always included in the basic cleaning price.
- Oral Health at the Time of Visit: Teeth with heavy deposits of tartar, signs of gum inflammation, or other issues require more attention and specialized care, which can affect the final bill.
- Consistency of Cleanings: Patients who visit regularly tend to require less intensive cleanings, which keeps the cost lower. Those who delay their appointments may face higher costs due to the additional work needed to remove hardened deposits.
Cost Savings and Payment Plans
We understand that dental care can be expensive, and we offer a variety of payment options to help make treatment more affordable.
- Personal Funds: You can pay for your dental cleaning out of pocket, and we accept various payment methods, including credit and debit cards. This option allows you to manage costs directly without involving third parties.
- Canada Dental Benefit Program: If you qualify, this program provides financial support for dental care, including cleanings. It’s an excellent option for families or individuals who meet the eligibility criteria and need assistance covering their dental expenses.
- Payment Plans: We offer flexible payment options for patients without insurance. These plans allow you to break down the cost of your treatment into manageable monthly payments, so you can prioritize your oral health without financial strain.
- Insurance: For those with insurance, we directly bill all major providers, making the process smooth and hassle-free. You’ll only need to pay the remaining balance after your policy is applied. It’s always a good idea to review your plan to understand what is covered.
