Affordable Options for Patients Without Dental Insurance
We believe financial limitations shouldn’t stand in the way of your oral health. If you’re without dental insurance, our team will work with you to create a personalized payment solution.
1. Financing Through CareCredit
CareCredit is a third-party financing option that can spread the cost of treatment across monthly payments. It can help with larger procedures like crowns, bridges, or dental implants.
2. Paying With an HSA or FSA
If you have a health savings account or flexible spending account, you can use it to pay for dental care with pre-tax dollars. Check with your plan administrator which treatments it covers.
3. Medicare and Medicaid
Dental coverage under Medicare and Medicaid works differently from private dental insurance. Call (703) 250-5072 to ask whether your plan can be used at Shield Dental Care, and read how Medicare and dental care fit together.
4. The Shield Prevention Plan
Preventive care is the foundation of good oral health. The Shield Prevention Plan is $350 a year and covers two cleanings, two oral exams, two fluoride treatments, and cavity-detection x-rays and digital imaging, so patients without dental insurance can stay on top of their dental health.
Comprehensive Services for Every Patient
Even without dental insurance, you can access the same high-quality care as any other patient. Our practice provides a complete range of dental services designed to maintain, restore, and enhance your smile.

Why Preventive Care Matters — Even Without Dental Insurance
Skipping routine checkups because you don’t have dental insurance might seem like a way to save money, but it often leads to higher costs later. Preventive visits can catch issues early, preventing pain, infections, and expensive treatments.
Maintaining regular dental care helps you:
- Avoid cavities and gum disease
- Reduce emergency visits
- Protect your long-term oral health
- Maintain a confident, healthy smile
Prevention is always more affordable than treatment — and our flexible plans make it possible for everyone to receive ongoing care.
