We Accept Most PPO Dental Insurance Plans
At Dentistry of Hockessin, we believe exceptional dental care should never be limited by insurance company restrictions. While we are an out-of-network dental office, we proudly work with virtually all PPO dental insurance plans and help patients maximize their available benefits.
Many patients are surprised to learn that being “out of network” does not mean we don’t accept insurance. In fact, most patients with PPO dental insurance can still use their benefits at our office and receive reimbursement from their insurance company.
Our experienced team will verify your benefits, submit claims on your behalf, and help you understand exactly what your insurance plan is expected to cover before treatment begins.
Accepted Payment Options
Payment is due at the time of service unless prior arrangements have been made. We accept:
- Cash
- Personal Check
- Visa
- Mastercard
- Discover
- American Express
- CareCredit
- Lending Club

What Does Out-of-Network Mean?
Being out of network simply means that we have chosen not to enter into contracts with insurance companies that dictate treatment fees and influence clinical decisions.
Instead, Dr. Garrett Brink and our team focus on providing the highest level of dental care using advanced technology, premium materials, and personalized treatment plans tailored to each patient—not insurance company limitations.
In Simple Terms:
In-Network Office
- Insurance company sets treatment fees
- Insurance company influences reimbursement rates
- Dentists may be limited by contracted fee schedules
Out-of-Network Office
- Patients still use their PPO insurance benefits
- Insurance companies still contribute toward covered services
- Treatment recommendations are based solely on what is best for your health
- Greater flexibility in materials, technology, and treatment options
For most patients, the difference in out-of-pocket costs is often much smaller than expected, while the quality of care and treatment options can be significantly enhanced.
