We reserve our operatory exclusively for you. Because Dr. Kevin Chin designs and oversees every step personally, your treatment is guided by clinical longevity and facial harmony, never an arbitrary insurance reimbursement schedule.
We built City of Angels Dentistry as a fee-for-service practice, which means your treatment recommendations are based on what's best for you, not what an insurance plan dictates. We're out of network, and we handle the paperwork as a courtesy: we calculate your estimated out-of-pocket cost upfront, submit courtesy PPO claims for you, and coordinate your reimbursement checks.
Staying out of network is what gives Dr. Kevin Chin the freedom to spend real time with you, use the materials and lab he trusts, and sequence your care around your goals rather than a plan's annual maximum.
We never double-book or rush between chairs. When you sit in our operatory, our focus, time, and attention belong to you.
Dr. Chin works with elite ceramists, 3D iTero digital scans, and preservation methods that protect your natural tooth structure for the long term.
Guided by Dr. Chin’s background at USC, advanced cosmetic training at UCLA, and functional occlusion principles from the Kois Center.
As a courtesy, we calculate your estimated out-of-pocket cost before treatment, submit your PPO claims for you, and coordinate your reimbursement checks, so using your benefits takes no extra work on your end. Many PPO plans cover a meaningful share of out-of-network care.
We aren't able to work with these plans, and we'll tell you that on the phone rather than after you've taken time off work for an appointment.
Our in-house membership plan covers your preventive care for a flat annual fee, with no deductibles, waiting periods, or annual maximums.
Financing through CareCredit and Cherry lets you spread payments over time. We also accept cash and credit cards, and you'll know the full cost before treatment begins.
Dr. Chin earned his DDS at USC, completed advanced cosmetic training at UCLA, and studied treatment planning and functional occlusion at the Kois Center. He is a member of the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry.
Continuing education, staff training, and the space itself are ongoing investments, and this model is what makes them possible. Además, nuestro equipo habla español.
Meet Your Dental TeamYes. As a courtesy, we calculate your estimated out-of-pocket cost upfront, submit your PPO claims for you, and coordinate your reimbursement checks. Being out of network changes what your carrier reimburses, not whether you can use your benefits.
Network contracts come with rules about time, materials, and labs. Staying out of network lets Dr. Chin make those calls himself: how long your appointment runs, which lab makes your restoration, and what he recommends based on your mouth rather than a contract. Those choices are what decide how long your dentistry holds up.
Yes. You get a written estimate covering the full fee, your projected insurance portion, and your out-of-pocket amount before anything begins. Nothing gets added later without a conversation.
No. It is a direct arrangement between you and this practice covering preventive visits for a flat annual fee, with no carrier in between. Ask the front desk to walk you through it.
Call and ask. You'll always know the full picture before you commit to treatment.
