1. Practically pain free dentistry!
One of the main reasons people love our office is because we do EVERYTHING to make sure you don't feel a thing.  One of our goals is to make pain, fear, and anxiety a thing of the past when going to the dentist.  Dr. Bentley’s techniques can truly eliminate your PAIN, FEAR, and ANXIETY when going to the dentist. It will be an experience you have never had before!

2. We will see you on time.
Have you ever gone to a dentist or doctor and WAITED 30-60 minutes or longer before you were even seen? Have you ever waited so long that your actual appointment time was less than your wait time?  We will RESPECT YOUR TIME. Our time is important to us, but we understand that yours is important to you as well. We PROMISE to make every effort possible to see you PROMPTLY at your reserved appointment time.

3. Guilt-free dental office
Studies have shown that the #1 reason people put off their dental care has nothing to do with fear or pain, but has to do with the guilt of putting off the dentist. People keep putting it off, because they are afraid to get LECTURED by the doctor and staff. At our office, this does not  happen.

4. Your satisfaction and happiness!
Wouldn’t it be WONDERFUL if after you went to the dentist, whom you know you absolutely hate going to, and spent money you worked very hard to get, but for the first time in your life left feeling HEALTHIER, HAPPIER, and completely SATISFIED? Is it possible to be happy you went and spent money at the DREADED DENTIST? We will try everything possible to make you feel this way because WE WANT YOU BACK! We want you to refer your friends, family, and co-workers to us! How are we ever going to do that unless you are completely 100% SATISFIED with us? We are COMMITTED to providing you with the kind of service we would want for ourselves. Your 100% satisfaction is our goal.

5. Affordable dentistry for the entire family
For a  list of all our payment options and discounts click here
Does dentistry COST TOO MUCH? Would you rather use your hard earned CASH or SAVINGS for something else? Are your own teeth ROTTING away and HURTING because you can only afford to keep your children’s teeth healthy? We can help! Not only do we accept insurances, but we have UNBELIEVABLY AFFORDABLE payment plans if you need to spread out the cost of treatment for up to 5 years! You can get, for example, $10,000 worth of dentistry for just $167 a month!!! Most people don’t need $10,000 worth of treatment, in fact the LIFETIME cost of dentistry for the average person is around $4,000 (or $67 per month). For a complete list of all our payment options and discounts click here. Don’t BURDEN yourself or your checkbook with someone who doesn’t understand your particular financial situation. Let someone care for you who UNDERSTANDS you, cares for you, and genuinely wants you to feel better no matter what your financial situation is.

6. We will not overcharge you, scam you, or play you for a fool
Have you ever started treatment with a doctor or dentist and then all of a sudden part way through treatment an extra HIDDEN fee jumped out at you and you were forced to pay it? Wouldn’t it be nice to know what it’s going to cost before you agree to proceed? Do these HIDDEN, UNEXPECTED fees make you think that doctors and dentists are SCAMMING you? This breaks our hearts to know that these kinds of things are happening every day giving other honest dentists and doctors bad names. We will not SCAM you or play you for a FOOL. We are honest, straightforward, and DIFFERENT.

. Friendly, Caring Staff
Have you ever had a staff member at a dentist’s or doctor’s office been downright RUDE to you? Have you ever had them act LIKE YOU’RE NOT EVEN THERE, or treat you like you’re NOT A REAL PERSON but rather JUST ANOTHER NUMBER waiting in line? Do they treat you like they’ve got something better to do or are TOO BUSY to talk to you and make you feel UNIMPORTANT? Well YOU ARE IMPORTANT! This unacceptable behavior is seen so often throughout dental offices, medical offices, etc. that it is EMBARRASSING to the profession. You deserve much better and we are here to show you that there is a dentist’s office out there that’s DIFFERENT, a dental office that will treat you like you deserve to be treated. Our staff will treat you so well you’ll think you’re our only customer!

8. Mercury free fillings
Do you have DISGUSTING dark grey or black fillings in your mouth? Do you know that there is mercury in those fillings and that MERCURY IS A POISON*? Did you know that you can have all your dark fillings replaced with BEAUTIFUL white fillings very easily in as little as one visit? Finally, a dentist is out there who has completely given up the OUT OF DATE practice of placing mercury containing silver fillings. He has perfected the art of white composite fillings to the point that you can’t see or feel them as being different then the rest of your teeth. You will LOVE your new METAL FREE smile!

*The mercury contained in silver/mercury (amalgam) fillings has not been proven to cause a significant amount of toxicity in people having these fillings although there is constant debate over whether or not this is true. Only time and a lot more study and debate will tell, but one way to be sure you’re not getting mercury poisoning is to not have it in your mouth.

Financial Information & Dental Insurance Information
Dental treatment is an excellent investment in your health and well being. Because of this, we believe financial considerations should not be an obstacle to obtaining dental procedures.  Prior to beginning your treatment, ALL fees and financial arrangements will be discussed with you. We will coordinate these arrangements with your dental insurance benefits.
We accept all major credit cards in addition to cash & personal checks.  There is also a pre-payment 5% cash discount; call for details.

CareCredit
As a service to our patients, we are pleased to offer the CareCredit card, the nation's leading patient payment program. With CareCredit you can finance 100% of your dental care and there are no upfront costs, no annual fees, and no pre-payment penalties. So, you can begin your treatment today and conveniently pay with low, monthly payments.

CareCredit offers a full range of payment plans so you can find one that works best for you. With the popular No Interest Payment Plans
(terms and conditions) there are no interest charges if you pay your balance in full within the specified time period. Monthly payments can be as low as 3% of your balance. For procedure fees from $1,000 and up, CareCredit offers 24, 36, or 48 month plan options with low monthly payments available.

CareCredit can be used by the whole family for ongoing treatment without having to reapply. And by using CareCredit for your dental care, you can save your other credit cards for household or unplanned expenses. It only takes a few minutes to apply for CareCredit and you'll receive an online decision in seconds! Apply now or see our staff for more details.


Dental Insurance
If you have a dental insurance policy, we will do everything we can to help maximize your benefits.  Our insurance coordinator is highly skilled at getting all the dental benefits you are eligible for with your insurance carrier.  Dental insurance is only intended to help pay for the costs of your dental care.  Our doctor does not plan your dental treatment based on what an insurance company covers.  Rather, your individual dental needs and concerns are taken into account when planning your treatment.  No treatment will be started until you approve of your treatment plan and the associated costs.

Dental Implants & Invisalign (invisible, clear braces)
Invisalign is covered by most insurances with orthodontic coverage.  Also, your dental or medical insurance may cover a portion of your dental implant treatments. 

About HMO Dental Plans!
We accept most dental insurances, with the
exception of Denti-Cal, Healthy Families, and all dental HMO plansIf you have had the misfortune to be a patient at an "HMO dental office", you will love our office!  We treat you with respect, and we value your time.  We will never push you into unnecessary treatments, or make you wait months for an appointment.  Here is a website by the well known and highly respected Dr Mike Barr about HMO Dental "Bait and Switch" Tactics.

More About HMO Dental Offices........

1.   HMO providers have contracted with insurance companies to provide each procedure of your care for a lesser fee. This means using cheaper materials and lesser quality care for you.

2.   You do not get to pick the dentist of your choice. Often a new graduate is caring for HMO patients.

3.  The insurance company rather than the dentist is the final judge in how you are cared for.

4.  Insurance companies aren't concerned necessarily about your future dental health or preventive care.

5.  Insurance companies are profit motivated. Less costs equal greater corporate profits.

6. They don't redo improper results due to the low initial fee charged by HMO providers. Often most patients choose not to return. They eventually pay again to have it done right in a private non HMO office.

7. Interviews with former HMO office employees show excessive and unnecessary care in order to maximize the insurance. This may cause future necessary dental needs.

8.  HMO dental offices have to perform more work in your mouth to increase their production.

9.  HMO providers are bound by their contract with the insurance companies to care for you according to the insurance company's limits and constraints, not necessarily consistent with their training, conscience and moral character.
