Getting the Most Out of Your Child's Dental Benefits Has Never Been Simpler

For many families, figuring out how insurance works with a dental practice can feel uncertain, especially when you are not sure whether your plan is accepted or what your out-of-pocket costs might look like. At Main Street Pediatric Dentistry, we work with a wide range of insurance plans (including AlwaysCare, Anthem and Unicare, Careington, Cigna, Humana, Metlife, United Healthcare) and are committed to helping families in Belmont, Charlotte, Gastonia, and the surrounding communities understand their options clearly and without confusion.

Insurance Information

Accepted Insurance Plans

At Main Street Pediatric Dentistry, we are in-network with Delta Dental and Primera, two of the most widely carried dental insurance plans in the region. We also work with most major insurance plans, meaning that even if your specific carrier is not listed as an in-network provider, there is a good chance we can still see your child and help you make the most of your benefits.

Here is a quick overview of our insurance relationships:

  • Delta Dental: In-network
  • Primera: In-network
  • Most major insurance plans: Accepted as an out-of-network provider
  • HMOs: Not accepted
  • Government programs (Medicaid): Not accepted
  • Discount membership plans: Not accepted

We encourage families to reach out to our office with any questions about their specific plan. Our team is happy to help clarify your coverage before your child’s visit so there are no surprises.

What to Know If Your Insurance Is Out of Network

One of the most common concerns families have is what happens when their insurance plan is not in-network with a practice. At Main Street Pediatric Dentistry, being out of network does not necessarily mean high out-of-pocket costs. Many insurance plans still cover a significant portion of preventive services even when a provider is out of network, and for routine visits like exams and cleanings, the difference in cost is often minimal.

Dr. Savage is a locally owned and operated solo practitioner, which means your child sees the same board-certified pediatric dentist at every visit. That consistency supports more thorough, personalized care and helps build a relationship that makes children feel comfortable over time. Many families choose Main Street Pediatric Dentistry specifically because of this approach, even when it means working with their insurance on an out-of-network basis.

For families who prefer not to use insurance or whose plans are not accepted, we are a fee-for-service-friendly practice. We also offer financing options through Cherry and CareCredit, which allow families to break treatment costs into manageable monthly payments. These options can be used on their own or alongside your insurance benefits to cover remaining balances.

Frequently Asked Questions

We know insurance can raise a lot of questions, and we want to make sure you feel informed before your child's visit. Here are a few of the questions we hear most often.

What if my insurance plan is not in-network with your practice?

We work with most major insurance plans on an out-of-network basis. In many cases, your plan will still cover a portion of your child’s care, particularly for preventive services. Our team can help you understand what your plan may cover before your visit.
At this time, we do not accept Medicaid or HMO plans. If you are unsure whether your plan falls into one of these categories, please contact our office and we will be happy to help you figure out your options.
We offer financing through Cherry and CareCredit. Both programs allow you to split the cost of treatment into monthly payments and can be applied for quickly, often on the same day as your visit. These options are available to all families, including those without insurance.
