Please browse through our patient services to learn more about us or feel free to call us any time to discuss any questions you may have.

Your First Visit
During your first visit, you will have the opportunity to meet the doctors as well as our team members. We recommend your treatment begin with a comprehensive oral examination to assess your current oral health. We will perform TMJ, bite and tooth-by-tooth examinations, and an oral cancer screening. Necessary decay-detecting X-rays will also be taken to complete the exam.
Patient Forms
As you prepare for your initial visit, we want to make it easy for you to fill out all the necessary new patient information, which is why you will find the available packet and HIPAA details below. Feel free to fill out the essential forms beforehand and review the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act before your arrival.

Dental Insurance
San Marcos Gentle Dental is not currently in-network with any particular dental insurance company; however, we are pleased to file any claims with your PPO plan. We know dentistry can be costly, but we want to make sure that we do our very best to ensure that you get the maximum reimbursement when undergoing various treatments.
In-House Savings Plan
For uninsured individuals, we offer an in-house dental savings plan that makes it easy to get the care needed at an affordable price. Enrolling is easy and grants you access to preventive services, a periodontal exam, and various discounts on other available treatment options.

CareCredit Financing
If you need help paying for multiple treatments, we are pleased to partner with third-party financier CareCredit. This company offers low-to-no-interest financing and promises no surprise fees. Instead of the concern of paying out-of-pocket for the full amount, you can instead pay for your treatment over several months.
