Dr. Tom Sexton, DMD, Tallahassee FL, and Thomasville, GA dentist

Payment and Insurance

coinsPayment:

Payment is expected at time of service.

If you have insurance benefits, you will be expected to make a payment for the estimated portion not covered by your insurance plan. For the portion of costs not covered by insurance, we offer several payment options:

  • Cash
  • Personal Check
  • Credit Card - We accept MasterCard, Visa, Discover, and American Express.
MasterCard
Visa
Discover

envelopeInsurance:

Dental insurance is intended to cover some, but not all of the cost of your dental care. Most plans include coinsurance provisions, a deductible, and certain other expenses, which must be paid by the patient at the time of services.

As a reminder, Dr. Sexton is double-boarded as both a Pedodontist (children's dentist) and an Orthodontist (braces for children and adults.) We recommend you understand how your insurance pays in regards to each of these specialties. We are not listed as a "general dentist" with insurance carriers.

Our office will file insurance for both "in network" and "out of network" plans.

We are "In Network" for the following:

Tallahassee, FL office:

Pedodontics and Orthodontics:

Compbenefits-CS150

Compbenefits-CS258D (previously CS250) The City of Tallahassee changed its "Pedodontic" benefits starting in 2010. Children 7 years old and older will receive a 25% discount. Insurance does not pay for any services rendered. The orthodontic benefit remained the same.

Compbenefits - SOFPRE Prefer Plus #4054 (State of Florida)

Compbenefits and Humana PPO plans

Orthodontics ONLY:

Select 15 #4044 (State of Florida) offers 25% discount

BCBS (Florida Combined) 20% discount and some plans also pay a portion of the braces.


If you do not have any of the plans listed above, we will file for you if you are allowed to go "out of network". Please be aware that if we are considered an "out of network" dentist, your out-of-pocket expense could be more. This is because your insurance may reduce our fees and pass the difference on to you.

We also recommend that you become aware of your benefits for fluoride treatments, x-rays and sealants. Each insurance pays these services on a different pay schedule at different ages
