Can I afford root canal treatment? [top]

At Oralieve, our door is open to everyone. It is our mission to provide the highest quality endodontic treatment at a reasonable cost.

Oralieve's staff will thoroughly research your coverage prior to treatment to prevent unwanted surprises. You will never receive another bill for services rendered, even if your program defaults on payment. In fact, you may be eligible for a partial rebate on your co-payment if your coverage adheres to industry standards. We strive to make quality care accessible for everyone even uninsured patients can afford treatment with our self-pay discount.

Can I make monthly payments? [top]

What is the Continuous Care Program? [top]

Our optional Continuous Care Program works like a lifetime coverage plan - all costs associated with future or follow-up services carried out by Dr. Merrifield are covered in full. You'll never receive another bill! Should you relocate while enrolled in the Continuous Care Program, Oralieve will even pay for initial treatment costs with a provider of your choice.
