Everything you need to get started — all in one place.

New Patient Forms

Getting started has never been easier. You can complete all new patient forms, update information, and manage appointments through our secure online Patient Portal — no printing required!

Insurance Made Simple

We believe great dental care should be simple and stress-free — especially when it comes to insurance. Sprout Dentistry for Kids is a Fee-For-Service practice that accepts most PPO insurance plans. We also have a full-time financial coordinator who will walk you through your benefits and help you understand how to get the most value from your plan.

We gladly accept Medicaid plans through DentaQuest, UnitedHealthcare Medicaid, and MCNA (Managed Care of North America). If you’d like help determining your coverage, our team is happy to verify your benefits and explain your options before your visit.

Have questions about our model or want to know if we accept your plan? Give us a call — we’re here to help.

Benefits of Fee for Service

If you don’t currently have dental insurance, no problem! Our fee-for-service model allows us to offer high-quality care at transparent, reasonable rates — with a focus on patient outcomes, not insurance restrictions.

Freedom of Choice

This model also gives families more freedom to choose a provider based on quality, trust, and experience — not just an insurance list. You can make decisions based on what’s best for your child’s health, not what’s covered by a network.

How do I prepare for my child's first visit?

Get them excited! Talk about the dentist in a fun, positive way — maybe even read a story about visiting the dentist together. There’s no need to print or bring forms. Just arrive a few minutes early with your child’s health history and insurance details, and we’ll take care of the rest.

At what age should my child start seeing the dentist?

Your child should have their first dental visit by age 1 or within six months of their first tooth erupting — whichever comes first. These early visits help us monitor oral development and build a trusting relationship with your child.

What is a dental home?

A dental home is a consistent, go-to practice where your child receives regular dental care as they grow. It helps establish trust, makes treatment more comfortable, and provides a long-term view of your child’s oral health and development.

What is the difference between a regular dentist and a pediatric dentist?

Pediatric dentists receive 2–3 additional years of specialized training focused on child behavior, growth and development, and dental conditions specific to infants, kids, and teens. They’re uniquely equipped to care for children of all ages and needs.
