How Your Ameritas Coverage Works Here
Ameritas offers dental plans covering preventive, restorative, and cosmetic treatments. Every plan is different, so before any treatment begins, our team verifies your specific Ameritas benefits — what’s covered, your deductible, and your expected cost — so there are no surprises.
- We accept Ameritas PPO dental plans.
- Texas Medicaid is accepted for children only.
We do not accept DMO or HMO dental plans, including Ameritas DMO/HMO plans. Self-pay pricing and financing are available if your plan isn’t accepted.
How It Works
Getting your benefits verified is simple.
1. Bring Your Insurance Card
Bring your Ameritas card to your appointment, or call ahead so our team can start the process.
2. We Verify Your Benefits
We’ll confirm exactly what your plan covers — and your expected out-of-pocket cost — before any treatment begins.
3. Receive Your Care
Dr. Patel, Dr. Vu, or Dr. Pruneda provides your treatment with your coverage already confirmed, so there are no surprises.
