What To Know About Dental Insurance
Here at Ackley Dental Group, we are frequently asked whether we accept certain dental insurance plans. In fact, when new patients call our office for the first time, that’s often one of their first questions. Dr. Kelly Ackley has created a video that answers many common questions regarding dental insurance.

Concerns with In-Network Dental Insurance
As Dr. Kelly explains, our office is considered out-of-network. However, we are always happy to help our patients with PPO plans file insurance claims, and we will advocate for you when necessary. One of the biggest concerns with in-network dental care is that providers are often limited in the treatments they can offer their patients. Insurance companies dictate which treatments are covered, which can limit a dentist’s ability to provide the best care. Instead, insurance typically covers more inexpensive options.
We believe that you and your provider should decide what’s best for your oral health—not the insurance company. Our dentists and team have years of training and expertise in this field. We know which treatments will benefit your current and future oral health. Unfortunately, when insurance companies determine coverage, the chosen treatment may need to be repeated or may not last as long as other, better options.
By removing the limitations set by insurance companies, we can recommend the right treatment, use high-quality materials, partner with trusted labs, and take the time necessary to provide the best care for your oral health.
If you’re located in Spring Hill, FL, or the surrounding area and need dental treatment or an oral hygiene examination, we’d love to meet with you. Contact our office to schedule an appointment, and we’ll be happy to answer any insurance-related questions you have. We look forward to seeing you soon!
