Yes. SnuggleTooth accepts the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP) and can bill eligible services directly. Coverage varies based on your individual plan and the treatment provided. If you have questions about your benefits, I'm happy to help.

Yes. SnuggleTooth offers direct billing for most insurance plans. If your plan allows direct billing, I can submit your claim on your behalf to help make the process as simple and convenient as possible. If you're unsure about your coverage, feel free to reach out and I'll do my best to help.

Every insurance plan is a little different. Many plans help cover services such as cleanings, x-rays, fluoride treatments, and dental hygiene examinations, but coverage amounts and frequency limits can vary. If you're unsure what your plan covers, I recommend checking with your insurance provider or reviewing your benefits information.

Usually not. Most insurance plans consider teeth whitening a cosmetic treatment, which means it typically isn't covered under standard dental insurance benefits. Some employers offer Health Spending Accounts (HSAs) or similar benefit programs that may be used toward whitening treatment, but coverage varies by plan and I can't guarantee eligibility. If you're unsure, it's always a good idea to check with your insurance provider or benefits administrator before treatment. If you're thinking about whitening and have questions, feel free to reach out. I'd be happy to chat about your options and help you decide if it's a good fit for you.

Currently, we do not have a dentist at our clinic, but this is something we’re looking to add in the future. We always advise our clients to visit a dentist regularly for exams and any necessary treatments. If you currently do not have a dentist we can recommend one based on your location and preferences.

Absolutely. Life gets busy, and many people put off dental care for all kinds of reasons. You're always welcome here, and we'll work at a pace that feels comfortable for you. While I recommend seeing a dentist yearly for exams, I'll let you know if I notice anything that should be assessed by a dentist. You don't need perfect teeth to book an appointment.. just take the first step!

Absolutely. Many patients see their dentist for exams and treatment while choosing SnuggleTooth for their dental hygiene care. Dental hygienists and dentists have different roles and work together to support your oral health. If I notice anything that needs a dentist's attention, I'll explain it and can provide a referral if needed. If you don't have a dentist, I'm happy to help you find one. The choice of who provides your dental hygiene care is yours. The Canadian Dental Hygienists Association's Client's Bill of Rights states that patients have the right to choose the registered dental hygienist providing their care.

Not at this time. SnuggleTooth is an independent dental hygiene practice owned and operated by a Registered Dental Hygienist. I provide preventive services like cleanings, x-rays, fluoride treatments, and teeth whitening. If I identify anything that requires a dentist's care, I'll explain my findings and help you arrange the appropriate follow-up. If you don't have a dentist, I'm happy to help you find one.
