La Plata, MD Dentist Increases Ability to Afford Necessary Dental Treatment such as Dental Implants
Cieplak Dental Excellence in La Plata, MD invests in a medical billing course to help more patients receive the care they need, such as dental implants and bone grafting, without the worry of financial burden.
LA PLATA, Md., Aug. 1, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Dr. Patrick Cieplak invests in the Nierman Practice Management course "Cross Coding: Unlocking the Code to Medical Billing in Dentistry" for his practice, Cieplak Dental Excellence in La Plata, MD. The course equips the staff at Cieplak Dental Excellence with the resources needed to compassionately work with patients on the best billing solutions available. This approach helps patients receive necessary treatments without feeling overwhelmed by a financial burden. By helping relieve this stress, the Cieplak Dental Excellence staff enables patients to receive the transformative care they need, including dental implants and bone grafting.
With over 30 years of experience helping practices streamline their management process, Nierman Practice Management CEO, Rose Nierman, created both the DentalWriter™ and CrossCode™ management software programs and authored the first medical billing manual for dentists. She has helped thousands of dentists learn how to ease the billing process for patients, to cover all treatments including dental implants, sleep apnea treatment, periodontal maintenance, and bone grafting. Because they offer all of these state-of-the-art treatments in office, Cieplak Dental Excellence sent Lori, the patient care coordinator, to Nierman's most recent billing course.
In addition to general family dentistry, Cieplak Dental Excellence offers life-changing treatment options to transform patient health. With dental implants, for example, Dr. Cieplak not only improves a patient's smile aesthetics, but also increases the patient's oral function. Dental implants restore a patient's missing tooth through a titanium post that is secured into the jawbone. This form of tooth replacement not only allows for a stable crown, bridge, or full arch of teeth to be placed within a mouth, but the dental post actually stimulates bone growth in the jawbone.
When patients leave tooth loss untreated or use a denture that does not secure into the bone, the bone slowly deteriorates, creating a sunken-in facial appearance. Bone can also deteriorate in patients suffering from gum disease. In some cases, so much bone is missing that there is not enough bone tissue to successfully secure a dental implant. For these situations, Dr. Cieplak can perform a bone graft for patients. With bone grafting treatment, Dr. Cieplak adds more bone to a patient's jaw in order to build up enough bone volume to place the dental implant. When bone loss has occurred in the upper jawbone, Dr. Cieplak often performs sinus lifts. He also offers ridge augmentations to create a jaw that is as close to the patient's natural jawline as possible.
In some cases, patients may have to undergo many types of treatments in order to fully restore their mouth. The caring staff at Cieplak Dental Excellence works closely with patients to make sure that finances never stand in the way of restoring a mouth to full health.
