Locally-owned Albuquerque dentist rolls out a new in-house plan to make dental work more affordable to all.
ALBUQUERQUE, NM / ACCESSWIRE / June 13, 2023 / It's no surprise that healthcare costs are a constant concern for many people in Albuquerque and all over the country. So, one local dental office took matters into its own hands when the newest coverage for Medicare came out and left a lot of their patients unable to afford the care they needed. Maven Dentistry created its plan so that dental care is affordable to all.

Husband and wife team Dr. Benjamin and Brandy Stogsdill purchased a local dentist practice from a retiring doctor in 2020 after spending several years working at other private practice clinics and in public health. While they looked back fondly on their other experiences, they knew that owning their own practice would allow them to treat patients like family and give them the personalized care they deserved.
Part of providing the best care to their patients meant making it affordable, which can be challenging to do, especially for patients on Medicare or with health insurance that doesn't cover very many services. Office manager and co-owner, Brandy Stogsdill explained,
"A lot of our patients are retired or reaching retirement age. And we know they have fixed income and can't always afford unexpected dental costs."
So, to combat the rising costs and shrinking coverage, the team at Maven Dentistry rolled out an in-house plan that allows patients to pay $425 plus tax annually for adults ($225 plus tax annually for kids) to receive the bulk of the care they would need in a year.
The plan includes two cleanings with exams, an emergency exam if needed, any necessary X-rays, and fluoride. Additionally, patients on this plan get 20% off any additional treatments required or wanted.
Maven Dentistry knows preventive care is incredibly valuable in maintaining healthy teeth, gums, and smiles. If cleanings and regular exams with a dentist go by the wayside, patients run into more painful and costly dental issues. Stogsdill shared,
"We never want people to go without their preventive cleaning visits. By creating an in-house plan, we are able to make cleanings and exams affordable. This way, people don't have to skip out!"
Stogsdill also shared that the in-house plan has been going over great with their patients and that they are thankful to have a way to get the care they need without worrying about surprise costs. She finished up by explaining why she and Dr. Stogsdill love owning their own dental practice.
"Our hope is that we will see our patients for the next 40 years. We see people every three to six months. We get to see our patient's kids grow up, get married, or we hear about the graduations-all the major milestones in life. These connections are what make owning our own practice so special."
