"Affordable" means different things to different people. For some it means the lowest possible price today. For others it means no surprises, no pressure, and a plan that fits their budget over time. At Rabbit Creek Dental, we try to be the second kind of affordable — honest about what things cost, upfront about your options, and focused on what you actually need rather than what generates the most revenue. Here's a real look at how dental care costs work in Mobile, and what options we offer.

What Does a Dental Visit Actually Cost?

For current pricing at Rabbit Creek Dental, visit our insurance and financing page. We list our fees transparently so you know what to expect before you come in. As a general reference, routine preventive care — cleanings, exams, and X-rays — is among the least expensive dental care you can receive. It's also the care that prevents the expensive stuff. A cavity caught at a cleaning costs a fraction of what it costs once it reaches the nerve.

Option 1: PPO Dental Insurance

If you have PPO dental insurance through your employer or a marketplace plan, we accept most major plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield and BCBS ALL Kids. Most PPO plans cover: preventive care (cleanings, exams, X-rays) at 100%; basic restorative care (fillings) at 70-80%; major restorative care (crowns, implants) at 50%. We verify your benefits before treatment so you know your out-of-pocket cost before anything is scheduled. No surprises. We do not accept Medicaid.

Option 2: RCD Dental Savings Plan

No insurance? Our in-house membership plan is the most cost-effective way to stay on top of your dental health without insurance. For $336 per year: two dental exams; two professional cleanings; X-rays as needed; 20% off all treatment fees. No waiting periods. No claim forms. No insurance company involved. You pay a flat annual fee and we take care of you. For a patient without insurance, the savings plan typically pays for itself on the first visit.

Option 3: Cherry Financing

For larger procedures — implants, crowns, dentures — Cherry financing lets you split your cost into monthly payments. Apply in minutes, get a decision quickly, and start treatment right away. Many patients combine Cherry with their insurance or savings plan to cover the gap.

What We Won't Do

We won't recommend treatment you don't need. We won't pressure you into scheduling before you're ready. We won't give you a vague estimate and then surprise you with a bigger bill. If something can wait, we'll tell you. If it needs attention now, we'll tell you that too — and we'll explain why. That's what we mean by affordable: honest care at fair prices, with real options when cost is a concern.
