Sun Life Financial Dentist in Spokane, WA
Most people don't realize being in-network with their insurance can make a real difference on what they actually pay — and with Sun Life Financial, that difference adds up fast. Trailhead Dental has a direct contract with Sun Life, which means your plan's benefits stretch further here than they would at an out-of-network office. You're not leaving money on the table.
When you come in, the team handles the insurance side so you don't have to stress about it. Dr. Jake Storer and the staff will walk you through what your plan covers, what to expect at checkout, and whether anything falls outside your benefits before any work gets started. There are no surprises — just clear, honest conversations about your care.
The office is right here in Spokane at 5011 W Lowell Ave, with evening hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays that work for people who can't always get away during the day. If you're ready to schedule, it only takes a minute to book online or give the team a call.
What Does Your Sun Life Financial Plan Cover at Trailhead Dental?
Sun Life Financial dental PPO plans are built around a pretty familiar structure. Preventive care — things like cleanings, exams, and X-rays — is typically covered at the highest level, sometimes at no cost to you after your deductible. The idea is that if your plan makes it easy to come in for routine visits, you're less likely to end up needing bigger work down the road.
Basic services like fillings and simple extractions are usually covered at a solid percentage, though you'll typically share a portion of the cost. Major work — crowns, root canals, bridges — is also covered in most Sun Life plans, just usually at a lower reimbursement rate. Most plans also have an annual maximum, which is the most your insurance will pay out in a given year. Once you hit that number, remaining costs are yours until your benefits reset. Every plan is a little different, so it's always worth calling Sun Life or letting the Trailhead Dental team verify your specific benefits before your first visit. That way you're walking in knowing exactly what to expect.
Trailhead Dental Is an In-Network Sun Life Financial Provider
Being in-network means Trailhead Dental has agreed to Sun Life's contracted rates for covered services. In plain terms, that means you pay less out of pocket than you would at a dentist without that agreement in place. There's no balance billing for covered services — just your share of the contracted fee.
This matters most when you're looking at anything beyond a basic cleaning. Even a filling or a crown can cost significantly less when your dentist is working within your plan's network. The Trailhead Dental team will file your claims directly with Sun Life, so you're not doing paperwork after the fact. Your benefits just work — the way they're supposed to.

The office is set up to feel approachable. The hours work for real schedules — including evening appointments on Tuesdays and Wednesdays — and the team takes the time to explain things clearly without making you feel rushed.
