Office Policies

Our Mission

Staff-member-blue-scrubsWe believe that a person's smile and dental health can influence their self-confidence and their ability to be successful in school, at work and in life. Achieving an attractive smile requires careful planning and a coordination of efforts between Dr. Miyawaki, the staff, the patient, the parents and the family dentist. It is our goal to make that process as easy and comfortable as possible.

Office Hours

We are open to serve you, answer questions or schedule an appointment during the following hours:

Monday – Thursday: 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

Appointments

Appointments are an important part of your treatment, as time has been reserved specifically for you to speak with the doctor and receive treatment. Please arrive on time for your appointment. If you are more than 15 minutes late, you might be asked to reschedule.

We request a 24-hour notice if you need to cancel your appointment. We are aware that unforeseen events sometimes require missing an appointment, and appreciate your cooperation.

Insurance

Our office is committed to helping you maximize your insurance benefits. Because insurance policies vary, we can only estimate your coverage in good faith but cannot guarantee coverage due to the complexities of insurance contracts. Please inform us of any changes to your insurance coverage.

Your estimated patient portion must be paid at the time of service. As a service to our patients, we will bill insurance companies for services. If claims are not paid within 60 days, you are responsible for the balance. If you have any questions, our courteous staff is always available to answer them.
