Insurance & Payment Policies:
Monterey Peninsula Dental Group accepts most insurance policies. We do not accept Denti-Cal or Medi-Cal.
Please note that full payment is due at the time of treatment. We accept cash, personal checks, and credit cards: Visa, MasterCard, Discover Card and American Express.
We will gladly bill your dental insurance plan for you. However, you are ultimately responsible for the entire cost of your treatment. If, for any reason, your insurance plan does not pay part or all of your care, or is slow to pay for services, you are responsible for the remaining balance. We try to estimate the amount that your insurance plan will pay. However, it is important to understand that it is only an estimate and is subject to change. Patients must pay the portion of the fees that are not covered by insurance at the time of treatment.
In special cases, a three month payment plan may be set up with your credit card. Ask us about other payment options.
An adult accompanying a minor child for treatment is responsible for full payment of any fees incurred.
Cancellation Policies:
Failure to cancel an appointment with at least two business days’ notice may result in a missed appointment charge.

Dr. Bashkar and her staff are fantastic! Attentive, pleasant and thorough. I am very pleased with my experience here and am very glad I stayed with her when she took over Dr. Ikemiya’s practice. She’s awesome and so are Grace, Selena and Amanda!

Dr May, his Team and the whole staff at MPDG are amazing. On my first dental visit in awhile, they handled everything smoothly and efficiently. Also with great attitudes. Couldn't recommend more highly.

Dr. Falkel worked his painless magic on me again. I drive an hour and a half to continue going to Dr. Falkel. I had so much anxiety and a terrible history with dentists but not anymore. He is an artist and great dentist. My teeth never looked better!
