A: We can provide solutions to help manage your dental costs.
"How can I find out what my insurance will cover if I choose to see an out-of-network provider?"
This is one of the most common questions we hear from new patients at The Wobbly Tooth Dental Practice—and for good reason. When you’re dealing with a dental emergency, the last thing you want to worry about is insurance fine print. You want relief, reassurance, and clarity. We’re here to help you get all three.
At The Wobbly Tooth Dental Practice in Frederick, MD, we specialize in emergency dental care, and we do it with empathy, transparency, and a patient-first mindset. We understand that emergencies are overwhelming. Whether you’re experiencing a sudden toothache, a broken crown, or a dental injury, your focus should be on feeling better—not navigating insurance complexities. That’s where we come in.
When you come to us with an emergency, your care is our top priority. While we understand the importance of managing costs, we will never compromise the quality of your care to fit within the limitations of an insurance policy. Instead of letting your plan dictate what kind of care you receive, we work with you to find solutions that support both your health and your budget.
Our approach is simple: We treat you based on what’s clinically necessary and right for you—not what’s “allowed” by your coverage. Our treatment plans are designed with your needs at the forefront, ensuring you get the relief you need without delay.
Many of our patients are surprised to learn that they can still use their insurance even if we are considered an out-of-network provider. In fact, most PPO dental insurance plans offer some form of out-of-network reimbursement. While the amount covered may vary, you are typically entitled to partial reimbursement for your emergency visit and follow-up care.
Here’s how it works:
This structure gives you the freedom to choose the dental care that’s right for you—even in an emergency—without being locked into a specific network.
We know that unexpected dental issues often come with unexpected costs. That’s why we’ve made it as easy as possible to manage payment. We accept all major credit cards, Health Savings Accounts, and several patient-friendly financing options, including:
These programs are designed to help you spread payments out over time, so you can get the care you need now without financial stress. Many plans cover amounts up to $75,000, and we work with patients across a wide range of credit profiles.
Not having dental insurance shouldn’t keep you from getting the care you need—especially in an emergency. At The Wobbly Tooth Dental Practice in Frederick, MD, we understand that millions of Americans go without coverage. That’s why we created a flexible, cost-effective alternative for individuals and families who want reliable access to dental care without the red tape of traditional insurance.

Our patients often tell us how different their experience feels here—how they went from anxious and overwhelmed to confident and cared for. That’s the Wobbly Tooth difference.
