Owings Mills Dentist Offers Care for Patients In and Out of Network

February 7, 2017

In and out of network patients see Owings Mills dentist Dr. Mattson

Ah, dental insurance. The good news is you have it. The bad new is… you have it. Most dental insurance plans have a list of their in-network dental providers. If subscribers want to pay less, then they must see a dentist who is in-network on their plan. Thus, dentistry may be more affordable, but the final decision about your dental care may be determined by a faceless entity at the insurance company rather than you and your dentist. Owings Mills dentist Dr. Monica Mattson is not an in-network provider. This means that your insurance will not predict your treatment. Rather, your treatment is based upon Dr. Mattson’s careful evaluation of your dental and oral health. Then the two of you decide upon a treatment plan that works for your budget and schedule.
