Frequently asked questions
How many orthodontists are listed in Merced?
The NPI registry lists 14 providers in Merced, California whose primary taxonomy is orthodontics: 6 individual practitioners and 8 practices or organizations, at addresses in 2 ZIP codes. The earliest NPI enumeration among them is from 2005.
Do I need a referral to see an orthodontist?
It depends on your plan. Many dental specialists see patients without a referral, but some dental HMO (DHMO) and Medicaid plans require one from your general dentist before they will pay. Check your plan documents or call the number on your insurance card before booking.
Do these orthodontists take my dental insurance?
The NPI registry does not record which insurance plans a provider accepts, so we do not show it. Use your insurer's online provider directory and confirm with the office by phone, since networks change.
