When you face a dental health issue, it’s important to take care of it as soon as possible. But if your budget is tight, seeing a dentist right away may not be ideal. Fortunately, thanks to the services offered by CareCredit®, patients can rest assured that their treatment is covered and pay it off in reasonable installments. To learn more about this flexible financing option, here are a few important details to know about CareCredit.

A Guide to CareCredit 

What is CareCredit?

CareCredit is a unique type of credit structured to cover expenses associated with health and wellness. If your dentist accepts CareCredit, you can use your card to cover all of the costs of treatment — including routine cleanings, oral exams, emergency root canals, and restorative care. Once your upfront charges are taken care of, you’ll pay off the balance directly to CareCredit in small monthly installments.

What Are the Benefits of CareCredit?

In addition to making dentist visits and healthcare more affordable, CareCredit offers a variety of programs to make the repayment process easier. For example, in some cases, you may qualify for no- or reduced-interest if you’re able to pay off your balance within a specific amount of time.

Who Accepts CareCredit?

CareCredit is accepted at more than 200,000 health-related businesses across the United States. In addition to covering dental expenses, you may be able to use the card to cover general doctor’s visits, vision care, veterinary appointments, and more.

How Do You Qualify for CareCredit?  

So long as you are 18 or older, you may qualify for CareCredit. To apply, simply visit their website to complete a quick application to receive approval within minutes. You may also apply directly through your care provider.
