Our Atlanta, GA dentist, Dr. Thomas Kauffman believes every patient deserves beautiful teeth without having to break the bank.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most dental financing companies accept a wide range of credit scores. However, if yours is above 640-700, you’ll be more likely to qualify for low or no-interest-rate plans. To learn if you could qualify for dental financing, we recommend contacting CareCredit directly.
Most dentists work with CareCredit to provide patients with an alternative payment option. Instead of paying one large installment, you’ll be able to finance your treatment and pay in small monthly amounts. Financing can be used whether you have insurance or not, making it a great option to reduce the financial strain of a larger dental procedure.
Whether or not your insurance will cover your dental treatment depends on what type of procedure you’ll be undergoing. If it’s for restorative or medical purposes, most companies will either fully or partially cover the cost. This includes dental implants, porcelain crowns, as well as general family dentistry services.
CareCredit doesn’t have long-term effects on your credit. In fact, it can even boost your credit score if you make your payments on time. While there may be a slight dip at first, this is due to the fact that a credit check will be run to learn which payment plan you qualify for. As long as you make timely payments, CareCredit won’t hurt your score.
Your Smile’s Health Is Priceless
Your smile is the first thing people notice about you. That’s why if you’re suffering from any dental issues, you shouldn’t let payment get in the way of dental care.
