Orange, CA (PRWEB) January 27, 2010
Western Dental has opened three brand new affiliate offices in Nevada, furthering expanding the large dental chain's industry dominance in the Western states.
Western Dental is a dental health maintenance organization serving customers at over 220 dental and orthodontic offices throughout California, Arizona and now, Nevada. Hundreds of dentists, orthodontists, and other specialists in the field of dentistry provide services directly through the company's offices to over 200,000 patients each month. The organization employs more than 4,000 doctors, hygienists, assistants, managers, administrators and clerical personnel and has an extended affiliate network of over 1,700 additional independent dental professionals in 1,400 more offices throughout California.
The ever-expanding chain is the largest provider of dental services in California and one of the nation's leading dental health maintenance organizations, commonly known as an HMO. The full-service dental chain employs state board licensed professionals who are providing care in virtually every aspect of dentistry. All of the dentistry and orthodontic clinics operated by the organization and its affiliates utilize state-of-the-art dental equipment, instruments, supplies, and Quality Assurance Management Systems (QAMS), which electronically monitor patient care.
The company is best known for its plethora of payment options, intended to make dentistry services obtainable for individuals and families of all income levels. One way they do this is by liberally extending credit to patients, the highlights of which include easy approval, convenient installment options at zero percent interest, and low down payments. The fact that a dental office is willing to offer a custom-tailored financing plan is good news for patients without dental insurance or credit. Western Dental services is also a participating provider for most major dental insurers and they accept Denti-Cal.
In addition to the many avenues of payment the company makes available to those who need dental care, a variety of individual and family insurance plans for California residents are available. Such plans provide coverage of Western Dental services including general dentistry, orthodontics, oral surgery, periodontics, and endodontics. Features of the individual and family plans include: no deductibles, no annual or lifetime maximums, cosmetic dentistry benefits, one low annual fee, no claim forms to fill out, orthodontic coverage for children and adults, and of course, the convenience of walk-in offices that are open evenings and Saturdays.
The history of the dentistry chain goes back to 1903, when Dr. Curtis Beauchamp founded the company in California. His goal was to provide quality, low-cost dental services to people who had trouble affording it. He had a "family dentistry" vision with an emphasis on affordability, which was carried on by Dr. Robert Beauchamp, who gradually became a "credit dentistry" pioneer. Dr. Robert Beauchamp became renowned for offering low cost dental care and credit terms to people who couldn't afford the high fees typically associated with family dentistry practices. To this day the organization is defined by Beauchamp's commitment to providing quality dentistry care at affordable prices to everyone in the local communities their offices serve.
