At Bent Tree Dental, we know that financial pressures can sometimes make it feel like quality dental care is out of reach. Many people find themselves torn between the cost of everyday essentials and the care they know they need for a healthy smile. With expenses rising, it’s easy for dental visits to feel more like a “someday” priority. However, putting off dental care can have long-term effects. Your oral health is too important to let finances hold you back. We believe that a healthy, beautiful smile should be accessible to everyone, so we offer flexible options to ease the path to treatment. Our team is ready to work with you to find loans or payment plans that align with your budget, empowering you to receive the dental care you need when you need it.
Loans for Dental Work: How it Works and How We Can Help
Dental loans and financing options make high-quality dental care more accessible by dividing costs into affordable monthly payments. Instead of covering the full cost upfront, these plans allow you to spread expenses over time, making treatments like tooth replacement easier to afford.
For example, a dental loan is a personal loan specifically for dental treatments. These loans often feature fixed monthly payments over a set term, typically lasting three to five years.
However, at Bent Tree Dental, you can extend your payments over five to ten years, often starting at 0% interest. We also work with third-party financing companies to provide quick approvals, meaning we can usually secure your financing while you’re still in the office.
If credit worries keep you from pursuing dental care, we’re here to help. By partnering with multiple financing companies, we strive to find the best solution for your needs. Many patients are pleasantly surprised to discover they qualify for financing, even if they had concerns initially. We aim to ensure nothing prevents you from achieving a healthier, more confident smile.
Tooth Replacement Solutions: How Dental Implants Can Help
Tooth replacement can feel like a big step—both financially and physically. As one of the more significant dental investments, it’s understandable if it feels overwhelming. However, it’s worth considering that delaying tooth replacement can lead to various potential complications.
Missing teeth can lead to gradual jawbone loss in the affected area, which may change your facial appearance over time. This loss can result in sunken cheeks and contribute to premature aging. Additionally, missing teeth can cause neighboring teeth to shift, impacting your bite and making proper cleaning more difficult. These changes can increase plaque buildup, raising your risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
When it comes to reliable tooth replacement solutions, dental implants are hard to beat. These titanium posts act like artificial roots, stimulating the jawbone and supporting the new tooth just as a natural root would. When Dr. Miller places an implant in your jaw, it helps keep your jawbone healthy and restores both the appearance and function of your smile.
How Mini Dental Implants and Loans Work for You
If you’re considering dental implants, Dr. Miller begins with a free consultation with a 3D CBCT scan of your jaw. This detailed scan gives him a clear picture of your bone structure, allowing him to plan your treatment precisely. We’ll also review financial details with you, offering payment plans and financing options to keep your care within reach.
We’re also pleased to offer mini dental implants for patients seeking a more affordable solution. Mini dental implants are smaller, typically less than 3 millimeters in diameter, compared to the 5-millimeter diameter of standard implants. This compact size allows for a quicker, less invasive placement process, shortening procedure times and reducing associated costs. Additionally, Dr. Miller can often place mini implants in areas with lower bone density without requiring bone grafting. This way, you avoid an extra procedure that would otherwise add to the cost and recovery time.
