New patients

Welcome — we're glad you're here

Everything you need to know before your first visit to Boatman Dental.

Your first visit

What to expect

Your first appointment is a conversation, not a lecture. We'll take modern digital images, complete a thorough exam, and walk you through everything on a screen in front of you — in plain language, with clear pricing for anything we recommend.

Plan for about an hour. Bring a photo ID, your insurance card if you have one, and any questions on your mind. That's it.

Finances & insurance

Straightforward ways to pay

Dental insurance

We work with most major PPO plans and handle claim filing for you. Bring your card and we'll verify your benefits before treatment.

Upfront pricing

No insurance? You'll always know the cost before treatment begins — clear, itemized pricing with no surprises on the way out.

Flexible financing

Monthly payment options through third-party financing partners help you move forward on larger treatment without the sticker shock.

Dental anxiety

Nervous? You're in good company.

A huge number of our patients arrive after years away from the dentist, often because of a bad experience somewhere else. We get it — and we've built our whole approach around changing that story.

Expect zero judgment, full control over the pace, and comfort options like blankets to help you relax. Do you require sedation? We can get you connected with our amazing local specialists for that part of your care. You set the terms; we do the rest.
