We Accept Sun Life PPO but not DHMO
Our dental office is able to work with the PPO plans, meaning we accept Sun Life PPO. A lot of our patients have this plan.
​
What it means for you to have the PPO plan: The Sun Life PPO plan typically covers most of the necessary dental procedures such as dental checkups, cleanings, fillings, crowns, root canals, and etc. However, elective procedures such as teeth whitening and veneers are often not covered.
We do not accept Sun Life DHMO plans
Sun Life offers a “managed” plan called DHMO which our dentists are out of network with but more importantly, we’re unable to accept it.
​
Why we can’t accept it: Managed plans typically assign you to a specific dental office/provider. That means you do not get to choose.
-
Your visit will NOT be reimbursed if you see a dentist other than your assigned one.
-
Therefore, if you get your dental checkup with us, none of your visit will be covered. You will be responsible for the cost 100% out of your own pocket.
