Insurance, coverage, and what it costs
Maz Endodontics is in network with PPO dental plans. We verify your benefits before your visit, so you know what is covered before any treatment begins. No surprises at the front desk.
PPO plans we accept
Maz Endodontics is in network with these PPO plans. If yours is not listed, you may still be well covered as an out of network specialist. Call and we will verify your benefits.
What we are not contracted with
So you are not caught off guard, we do not participate in these:
Not in network? You are probably still covered
This is the part most people get wrong. A PPO plan usually pays a meaningful share of specialist treatment even when the specialist is out of network. The difference is often smaller than patients expect.
We verify your benefits before you come in
Give us your plan details when you book. We contact your insurer, confirm your annual maximum, deductible, and the percentage they cover for endodontic treatment.
You get the number before treatment starts
We tell you what your plan is expected to pay and what your share will be. You decide with the full picture in front of you, not after.
We file the claim for you
We submit the paperwork directly to your insurer, including the imaging and documentation they need. You do not chase reimbursement on your own.
What affects the price of a root canal
No two teeth are the same, so no honest quote comes before an exam. These are the things that actually move the number.
Which tooth
Front teeth have one canal. Molars can have four or more. More canals means more time and more complexity.
First treatment or retreatment
Redoing a failed root canal from another office takes longer than treating a tooth for the first time.
Whether you choose sedation
IV sedation is optional and priced separately. Most patients do fine with local anesthetic alone.
Your plan and where you are in the year
Your deductible, your coverage percentage, and how much of your annual maximum is left all change what you pay.
Get your actual number, not a range
Call us with your plan information. We verify your benefits and tell you what your share will be before you commit to anything.

Do you file the insurance claim for me?

Yes. After we verify your benefits we tell you what your plan is expected to pay and what your share will be, before you commit to anything.
Is IV sedation covered by insurance?
Coverage for sedation varies quite a bit by plan. We check this specifically when we verify your benefits so you know before the day of treatment.
