FAQs

Please bring a valid photo ID, your dental insurance card (if applicable), and a list of any medications you’re currently taking. If you’ve had recent dental X-rays at another office, let us know — we may be able to request them.

Yes! We’re always happy to welcome new patients of all ages to Spring Valley Dental Group. Whether it’s your first dental visit in a while or you’re simply looking for a new provider, our team is here to make the transition smooth and stress-free.

We work with many major insurance carriers and will file claims on your behalf. Because each plan is different, we encourage you to check your provider’s online portal or call their member services line to confirm if our office is in-network. Even if your plan is out-of-network, we can often still file for benefits — and many services may still be covered. Our team is happy to help verify your coverage and provide an estimate of any out-of-pocket costs before your appointment.

No insurance? No problem. We offer an in-house Membership Plan that includes a cleaning, exams, and X-rays, plus 30% off most restorative and specialty care — all for just $200 per year. It’s a simple, affordable alternative to traditional insurance.

Our office is conveniently located at 904 E Highway 50, directly across from O’Fallon Township High School and just minutes from Scott Air Force Base. Free, on-site parking is available right outside the building.

Yes! We provide care for patients of all ages, including children. Our gentle approach helps kids feel comfortable while teaching them healthy dental habits early.

We accept all major credit cards, cash, personal checks, and CareCredit. Our membership plan is also available for patients without insurance.

If you’re experiencing a dental emergency such as severe pain, swelling, or a broken tooth, call us right away. In most cases, we can see you the same day or within 24 hours.

To cancel or reschedule, you’ll need to speak directly with a team member by phone. Messages left on voicemail, emails, or form submissions do not count as confirmed cancellations. Please provide at least 24 hours’ notice to avoid cancellation fees.

Yes. Spring Valley Dental Group accepts third-party financing through CareCredit, which can be used to help spread out your out-of-pocket costs into manageable monthly payments. Financing can be combined with your dental insurance benefits to cover what your plan doesn’t pay for — giving you flexibility if you need more extensive treatment.

Please note that our in-house Membership Plan is designed as an insurance alternative, so discounts under the Membership Plan cannot be combined with dental insurance. If you’re not using insurance, the Membership Plan still provides significant savings on preventive and restorative care.
