Flexible Financing Options at Our Office
We offer healthcare financing through CareCredit and Cherry so you can spread the cost of treatment into monthly payments. Approval, promotional offers, and terms are set by each lender and depend on your credit profile, so our team can walk you through the options before you decide.
Below, you will find how each option works, along with financing information for dental implants.
CareCredit for Dental Care at Our Jacksonville Office
CareCredit is a healthcare credit card that lets you pay for dental care over time. We accept it at Distinctive Dentistry by Mullens & Nguyen, and you can apply online before your visit or ask our team to help you in the office.
Promotional financing may be available depending on your approval and the amount of your treatment, and CareCredit sets the terms. We encourage you to review them before you apply, and our team can show you how monthly payments might fit alongside the plan Dr. Mullens or Dr. Nguyen recommends.
Cherry Financing for Dental Treatment
Cherry is another healthcare financing option for patients who qualify. It lets you spread the cost of care into monthly payments, with approval and terms based on your credit profile.
Cherry and CareCredit are structured differently, so comparing both can help you choose the better fit for your budget. Our team is happy to walk through each option during your consultation, so you can decide with confidence.
Dental Implant Financing
Replacing missing teeth is one of the larger investments in dental care, and the total depends on several factors, including how many teeth need replacing and what preparation your mouth requires. Our guide to the factors that determine the cost of dental implants explains what shapes your estimate.
Financing can turn that investment into manageable monthly payments. After your exam, Dr. Mullens or Dr. Nguyen provides a treatment estimate, and our team reviews the payment options that may fit. If you are ready to learn more about dental implants, we are here to answer your questions.
Monthly Payment Approach
Rather than focusing solely on total treatment costs, we present treatment options in monthly payment terms that fit your budget. Your monthly payment depends on your treatment plan, the financing option you choose, and the terms you qualify for.
Complex procedures like full mouth reconstruction or extensive cosmetic treatments may become more manageable when broken into monthly payments over extended terms. Our team works with you to review the financing options and terms that may fit your situation and treatment plan.
This approach may allow you to move forward with your oral health and aesthetic goals without delaying treatment because of cost, so you can address dental issues before they become more complex.
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 financing through CareCredit and Cherry, two widely used healthcare financing options. Approval, promotional offers, and terms are set by each lender and depend on your credit profile. Our team can walk you through the 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 lets qualified applicants spread the cost of treatment into monthly payments. Approval and terms are set by Cherry and depend on your credit profile. Our team can walk you through the application process.

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.
If you’re interested in learning more about your cosmetic dentistry options, please contact us to schedule a consultation with Dr. Mullens or Dr. Nguyen. They can help craft a treatment plan that will transform your appearance in a way that achieves your smile goals and best suits your budget. We can also go over your financial options at this time.
How Much Does Dental Care Cost Per Month With Financing?
Monthly payment amounts depend on your total treatment cost, the financing term you select, and the terms you qualify for. During your consultation, Dr. Mullens or Dr. Nguyen provides a complete treatment estimate, and our team can show you 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?
Approval and terms are set by each lender and depend on your credit profile, so options can vary from patient to patient. CareCredit and Cherry each have their own application, and our team can walk you through both so you know what to expect. If you have questions about your options, contact our office before your visit.
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.
