When you schedule an appointment with us, a student clinician and faculty member reserve that time exclusively for your care \u2014 and your commitment helps us provide the best possible experience for you and for other patients waiting to be seen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please give us at least 24-hour notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. You can reach us by phone at 402-472-1333 during regular business hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We understand that life happens, but patients who miss appointments or cancel repeatedly without adequate notice (two or more times within a 12-month period) may no longer be able to receive care at our clinics. If that occurs, we are happy to help connect you with our faculty practice, another UNMC health care clinic, or a private dentist in the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A few things to know about your appointments:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most appointments are a minimum of three hours. Because we are a teaching clinic, your care is thorough, personalized and supervised by experienced faculty \u2014 and that takes time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If your appointment will be shorter than three hours, your provider will let you know when scheduling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Extensive treatment needs may sometimes be better suited to our faculty practice or another care setting. If that applies to you, we will work with you to find the right fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are grateful you chose us for your dental care and look forward to seeing you.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"panel accordion-block\">\n\t<div class=\"panel__container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"panel__header\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"panel__intro\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>Insurance and Payment<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<strong>We accept several types of dental insurance, including Medicaid. <\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"panel__main\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"accordion\" role=\"tablist\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<div class=\"accordion__item\" data-animation=\"fade-in-up\" data-animate=\"\">\n\t<div class=\"accordion__toggle\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"tab\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-label=\"Insurance\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\tInsurance\t\t<div class=\"accordion__icon\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"accordion__content\">\n\t\t\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Ameritas<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Blue Cross Blue Shield of Nebraska.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Delta Dental<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nebraska Medicaid \u2013 Heritage Health:\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Centene Envolve.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>United Healthcare Community Plan (Medicaid only).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>We are accepting new Medicaid patients in our pediatric clinic in Lincoln.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item\" data-animation=\"fade-in-up\" data-animate=\"\">\n\t<div class=\"accordion__toggle\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"tab\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-label=\"Billing\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\tBilling\t\t<div class=\"accordion__icon\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"accordion__content\">\n\t\t\n\n<p>We will bill primary, in-network insurance companies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Please check with your insurance provider about reimbursement for out-of-network providers.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"accordion__item\" data-animation=\"fade-in-up\" data-animate=\"\">\n\t<div class=\"accordion__toggle\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"tab\" aria-pressed=\"false\" aria-label=\"Payment\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n\t\tPayment\t\t<div class=\"accordion__icon\"><\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\t<div class=\"accordion__content\">\n\t\t\n\n<p>Payment is required at the time of your appointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We accept check, cash, Discover, MasterCare, Visa and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carecredit.com\">Care Credit<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"panel split-column\">\n\t<div class=\"panel__container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"panel__main\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2>What to Expect<\/h2>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"grid grid--50\">\n\t\t\t\t\n<div>\n\t\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New patients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Examination of teeth, tissues and gums.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comprehensive dental services available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Most new patient appointments run from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A treatment plan and cost estimate will be created for you.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\n\n<div>\n\t\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Returning patients<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Annual exams and cleanings.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Comprehensive dental services available.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dental emergency services for current patients only.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"panel body-content\"><div class=\"panel__container\">\n\n\n<p>Comprehensive services may include braces, cosmetic dentistry, crowns, cleanings, dentures, fillings, gum treatments, implants, oral pathology, oral surgery, root canals, tobacco cessation and wisdom teeth care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Continuity of Care<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You will be assigned to a student dental team, and your care will be provided consistently by students from that team, even as they advance through their studies.
