What does a predetermination actually tell me?+
It can give you an estimate of what your insurer may pay for a proposed service. It is not a promise of payment, so check the details with your provider before relying on it.
How much does full-mouth reconstruction cost?+
There is no standard figure, because each plan combines different treatments over different lengths of time. An estimate can follow your assessment, once the care being proposed is clear.
Can I start with only what is most urgent?+
Urgent problems normally come first anyway. Before going further, ask what the following stages would protect, because some phases stand alone and others rely on later work.
Could a less expensive route still work for me?+
Ask for alternative pathways and the trade-offs of each, including what might happen if you delay. Whether an alternative is suitable depends on your teeth, gums and goals.
Is the estimate I got elsewhere still useful?+
You may bring it along as background. Options and fees are worked out from your own assessment here, so the two may not line up item for item.
How do Meadows West residents ask about an assessment?+
Our request form and our phone line, (204) 338-3003, both work, and you may mention that cost is on your mind. Visits take place at our Winnipeg clinic on McPhillips Street.
