A Note on HMO Plans
We do not accept HMO dental plans, with one exception: Cigna Dental Care (DHMO). If you have a Cigna DHMO plan, see our Cigna page for how to select us as your network dentist. If you have a different HMO plan, you can still see us through our In-House Membership Plan or by paying per service — and we’re happy to explain PPO options at your next open enrollment.
How Using Your Insurance Here Works
- We verify first. Call or submit the form below and we confirm your coverage, deductible, and remaining annual maximum before your visit.
- You get a real estimate. For larger treatment, we request a pre-treatment estimate from your carrier so you know your out-of-pocket cost up front.
- We file everything. Every claim, every follow-up. You never wrestle with insurance paperwork.
No Insurance? Our In-House Membership Plan
For patients without PPO coverage, our In-House Membership Plan covers all your cleanings, exams, and X-rays for one flat annual fee — with no deductibles, no waiting periods, and no annual maximums — plus significant discounts on all other treatment, including cosmetic procedures. We also accept CareCredit, Alphaeon, and Cherry financing.

Top Questions about Dental Insurance
Which dental insurance plans are accepted at your West Hollywood office?
We are in-network with all major PPO dental insurance plans — over 50 payors — including Delta Dental, Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, Guardian, UnitedHealthcare, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Anthem, plus Principal, Sun Life, Ameritas, Beam, United Concordia, and Liberty. We also welcome out-of-network PPO patients and handle all claim submissions for you.
Do you accept HMO dental plans?
We accept one HMO plan: Cigna Dental Care (DHMO) — see our Cigna page for how it works. We do not accept other HMO plans. Patients with other HMO coverage can join our In-House Membership Plan or switch to a PPO plan at open enrollment to use insurance benefits at our office.
How do I verify my insurance before my first visit?
Call (323) 654-1100 or submit our verification form with your carrier and member ID. Our insurance coordinator confirms your coverage, deductible, and remaining annual maximum — usually within one business day.
Will I have coverage if I have a PPO plan but you are considered 'Out-of-Network'?
Yes, in most cases. A PPO dental plan is designed to pay benefits even out-of-network — your reimbursement rate is simply somewhat lower than in-network. We handle all the paperwork either way and tell you your expected out-of-pocket cost before treatment begins.
Will you file my insurance claims for me?
Absolutely. Our team submits all your claims, tracks your benefits and annual maximum, requests pre-treatment estimates for larger cases, and helps you understand your out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
What is your In-House Dental Membership Plan and who is it for?
Our In-House Membership Plan is a direct alternative to insurance — ideal for patients without PPO coverage. One flat annual fee covers all cleanings, exams, and X-rays, plus significant discounts on all other treatment, including cosmetic procedures.
Does your Membership Plan have a deductible or annual maximum?
No. The primary benefits of our In-House Membership Plan are no annual maximums, no deductibles, and no waiting periods. Your coverage and discounts begin immediately, so you can get the dental care you need without worrying about a cap.
What payment options do you offer besides insurance?
We accept all major credit cards and cash, and offer flexible financing through CareCredit, Alphaeon, and Cherry for larger treatments. FSA and HSA funds can also be used for eligible dental care.
I moved to LA — can I use my out-of-state Blue Cross Blue Shield plan?
In most cases, yes. BCBS dental PPO plans generally provide nationwide coverage, so a plan issued in another state still works at our West Hollywood office. See our Blue Cross Blue Shield page or call us with your member ID and we’ll confirm your benefits.
