Fees and Payment Options

Our effective staff, efficient building design, and proper
office policies are intended to help us reach our goals of providing excellent
dental care at minimal fees. Excellent dental care does require a financial
commitment on your part, as the cost of dentistry does include such items as
meticulous equipment sterilization, quality dental lab work, modern professional
equipment, supplies and all the other components that make for a quality and
effective environment for your care.
Payment for professional services is required at the time of service, unless
prior financial arrangements have been arranged and agreed to. For your
convenience, we do accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover, American Express, ARKids
First and Arkansas Medicaid.
In those situations where a complex treatment plan exists, requiring many
visits, fees and financial options become more flexible, and will be discussed
in detail with you before treatment initiates. We can arrange for you to pay off
your dental care with multiple payments. If you want to get your dental
treatment now, and pay it off over time, we will work with you on that. Just
ask.
Fees for all treatments are based on many factors, including the time required
to perform the needed treatment, the expense of materials involved, and the
expertise Dr. Carroll must possess to perform your necessary treatment. Please
feel free to inquire about specific fees at any time.
All records we create, including x-rays, used in the diagnosis and treatment of
our patients, are the property of our office. The fees you pay are for our time
spent in your treatment, and for the expertise used in diagnosing and treating
dental conditions. Payments you make are for complete dental services, not
specific products. We are happy to transfer copies of our records to other
health professionals as needed, but original records must remain with us.
