Multiple Financing Partners
We partner with several leading healthcare financing companies to provide flexible payment options for treatments of all sizes. Cherry financing offers promotional periods with 0% interest for qualified applicants, allowing you to spread treatment costs over 24 months or longer terms based on your needs and creditworthiness.
CareCredit remains a trusted option for dental financing, providing extended payment terms for procedures ranging from routine care to complex reconstructive treatments. This established healthcare credit card offers various promotional financing options and can be used for ongoing dental care throughout your family’s treatment journey.
Alphion provides subprime lending options for patients who may not qualify for traditional financing, ensuring more individuals can access quality dental care regardless of their credit history. This alternative financing solution focuses on cash flow capacity rather than credit scores alone.
Monthly Payment Approach
Rather than focusing solely on total treatment costs, we present treatment options in manageable monthly payment terms that fit your budget. For example, a single dental implant may be available for approximately $99 per month through our financing partners, making comprehensive tooth replacement accessible without overwhelming upfront expenses.
Complex procedures like full mouth reconstruction or extensive cosmetic treatments become manageable when broken into monthly payments over extended terms. Our team works with you to identify financing options offering the most favorable terms for your specific situation and treatment plan.
This approach allows you to prioritize your oral health and aesthetic goals without delaying treatment due to cost concerns, ensuring you can address dental issues before they become more complex and expensive.
Insurance Processing and Benefits
As a fee-for-service practice, we work with most dental insurance providers as an out-of-network provider, maximizing your benefits while maintaining our commitment to uncompromising care quality. We process insurance claims on your behalf and provide detailed pre-determinations so you understand your expected out-of-pocket costs before beginning treatment.
Our experienced team helps you navigate insurance benefits, explaining how out-of-network coverage works and what reimbursement you may expect from your specific plan. We file claims directly with your insurance company and provide all necessary documentation to facilitate prompt benefit processing.
Many of our procedures, particularly cosmetic dentistry and complex reconstructive treatments, exceed typical insurance coverage limits. Understanding this upfront allows you to explore financing options that bridge the gap between insurance benefits and your total treatment investment.
Stop hiding your smile – achieve the stunning transformation you deserve with cosmetic treatments and flexible monthly payment plans.
Transparent Cost Communication
We provide detailed treatment estimates before beginning any procedure, ensuring you understand both total costs and available financing options. Our approach eliminates surprise expenses and allows you to make informed decisions about your dental care investment.
Pre-treatment consultations include comprehensive cost discussions, financing option reviews, and payment plan selection to match your preferences and budget. We believe informed patients make better decisions about their oral health care and treatment timing.
Our team remains available throughout your treatment journey to discuss payment options, adjust financing arrangements if needed, and ensure your financial experience remains as smooth and stress-free as your clinical care.

Treatment Investment Planning
Quality dental care represents a long-term investment in your health, confidence, and overall well-being. We help you understand the value proposition of comprehensive treatment versus piecemeal approaches, often demonstrating how investing in quality care upfront saves money over time.
Preventive care and early intervention typically cost less than treating advanced dental problems later. Our financing options make it possible to address dental concerns promptly rather than delaying treatment until problems become more complex and expensive to resolve.
For patients considering multiple procedures, we can coordinate treatment sequencing and financing to optimize both clinical outcomes and payment scheduling. This comprehensive approach ensures you receive the best possible results while managing financial commitments effectively.
Does Distinctive Dentistry Offer Dental Payment Plans?
Yes. We offer flexible payment plans through CareCredit and Cherry, two of the most widely used healthcare financing options available. Cherry offers promotional 0% interest periods for qualified applicants with terms up to 24 months. CareCredit provides extended payment options for both routine and complex treatments. Alphion is also available for patients who may not qualify for traditional financing. Our team will walk you through all options at your consultation.
Cosmetic Dental Bonding – This treatment is ideal for small changes such as reshaping damaged teeth or covering visible flaws. It is typically among the most affordable treatments, but the results may only last up to five years.
KöR At-Home Teeth Whitening– At home whitening can be done from anywhere and is mid-range in terms of cost. It’s a great treatment for patients looking to brighten their smile faster and more effectively than with over-the-counter whitening products.
Veneers – These can be a bit more expensive, but they are very versatile and can change many aspects of your smile in just one treatment. They can even last up to 20 years with proper care and maintenance.
Metal Free Dental Crowns – If you have dark, metal crowns or fillings, Dr. Mullens and Dr. Nguyen can replace them with durable, tooth-colored restorations that work well and blend seamlessly into your mouth.
Gum Recontouring - This treatment can help reshape your teeth, so they look larger, and your smile appears less “gummy”.
Botox / Dermal Fillers- An excellent way to fill in or relax fine lines and wrinkles that can last for months. These treatments look natural and require minimal downtime (just a few hours).
Does Distinctive Dentistry Accept CareCredit?
Yes, we accept CareCredit for all dental treatments. CareCredit is a healthcare credit card that lets you pay for treatment over time with promotional financing options. You can apply online at carecredit.com before your appointment or our team can assist you in our office.
What is Cherry Dental Financing?
Cherry is a healthcare financing option that offers 0% promotional periods for qualified applicants and is known for approving a wider range of credit profiles than traditional financing. We accept Cherry at Distinctive Dentistry and our team can walk you through the application process, which takes just a few minutes.
CareCredit– This independent financing program can make your treatment more affordable by splitting up the overall cost into smaller, budget-friendly payments.
Specials– At Distinctive Dentistry by Mullens & Nguyen, we run periodic specials on cosmetic treatments, including professional whitening.

How Much Does Dental Care Cost Per Month With Financing?
Monthly payment amounts depend on your total treatment cost and the financing term you select. A single dental implant may be available for approximately $99 per month through our financing partners. During your consultation, Dr. Mullens or Dr. Nguyen will provide a complete treatment estimate and our team will show you exact monthly payment options across CareCredit and Cherry before you commit to anything.
Does Dental Insurance Cover My Treatment?
As a fee-for-service, out-of-network practice, we file claims with most major dental insurance carriers on your behalf. We provide pre-determinations before major procedures so you know your expected out-of-pocket costs in advance. Many treatments, especially cosmetic procedures, may have limited insurance coverage — our financing options are designed to bridge that gap.
Is There a Financing Option for Patients With Lower Credit Scores?
Cosmetic dentistry primarily focuses on improving the appearance of one’s smile, rather than addressing essential health concerns. As a result, many insurance companies categorize cosmetic procedures as elective and often do not cover them. However, there are exceptions. Some treatments, like crowns or certain types of fillings, may be both aesthetic and functional in nature, leading to partial or full insurance coverage. Coverage varies by provider, policy, and specific procedure. If considering cosmetic dentistry, it’s essential to review your insurance policy or speak directly with your insurance provider to understand what’s covered and any associated out-of-pocket costs.
Can I Use Financing for Routine Dental Care, Not Just Big Procedures?
Yes. CareCredit can be used for a wide range of dental treatments, from routine cleanings and checkups to complex restorative procedures. Cherry is also available for treatments of all sizes. If cost has been a barrier to keeping up with your dental care, our financing options can help you stay on schedule without straining your budget.
