Appointments

Hours

Office hours are 9:00AM to 12:00Noon, and 1:30PM to 5:00PM, Monday through Thursday, by
appointment. The office is closed on occasion for holidays and vacations.

Emergencies

Dr. Chaney is available 24 hours a day. When the office is closed, his answering service is always
available to track him down by phone or pager. When he is on vacation, the answering service is
able to connect to the doctor covering his emergencies.

Financial Arrangements

After an initial examination, a complete plan of treatment is provided, including an estimate of cost.
Fees for treatment are payable at each appointment. If you have insurance coverage, the amount
payable may be considerably less than the total fee.

Dr. Chaney accepts all insurances that allow you the freedom to choose your dentist, which are
most insurance plans. This does not include plans that specify that you must choose your doctor
from a list. We are happy to help our patients with their insurance, including preparation of the
insurance forms, and providing a written estimate of insurance benefits for all planned procedures.

Patients are reminded that their insurance policy is an agreement between them and their insurance
company; and not between the insurance company and this office. The office can make no
guarantee of any estimated coverage and it is important that patients to understand that they will
always be responsible for their total obligation should their insurance benefits result in less coverage
than anticipated.

Children

Dr. Chaney treats children starting at three years old, the age a child should first see a dentist. Dr.
Chaney likes children, and welcomes children to his practice.

We strongly recommend that a child's dental care begin as soon as the child has teeth. As soon as
teeth begin erupting into the mouth, it is time to begin brushing them. When he or she is old enough
to handle a toothbrush, then the child should be brushing twice a day. The main reason for this is to
get in the habit of brushing. Also once a day mom or dad should brush them. This is to actually get
them clean. By the time the child is 6 years old, he or she will be old enough to get them clean
without help from mom or dad.
