Annual Membership

Because we care about our patients, we developed the In-House Membership Plan available at Parkville Pediatric and Family Dentistry. Many people find themselves without any dental insurance coverage these days, and our team can empathize! Our program assists patients who have no dental insurance coverage in making their dental care more affordable.

For a reasonable annual fee, the Membership Plan includes routine dental checkups and x-rays and provides significant savings for some of our most popular cosmetic and restorative services without insurance headaches. Because this plan is not insurance, there are no claim forms, no deductibles, no hidden fees or financial surprises, no required pre-authorizations or third-party interference to postpone treatment, no pre-existing condition limits and no waiting periods—benefits can be used immediately!
