Yes. You can visit Mesa Street Dental even if you do not have dental insurance.
At our El Paso dental office, uninsured patients can schedule preventive, restorative, emergency, and other dental care just like insured patients. Instead of relying on insurance benefits, you can pay directly for care and explore options available through Mesa Street Dental, including our Discount Loyalty Plan, current uninsured-patient specials, and Cherry payment plans.
The amount you pay depends on the care you need. Before treatment begins, our team can explain the recommended treatment and help you understand the expected costs and available payment options.
Dental Care at Mesa Street Dental Without Insurance
Not having insurance does not prevent you from scheduling a dental visit with us.
Whether you need a routine checkup or have a specific dental concern, Dr. Sean Harrell can first evaluate your oral health and determine what treatment, if any, may be appropriate.
Depending on your needs, your visit may include:
- A comprehensive or focused dental examination
- Digital X-rays when clinically appropriate
- Professional teeth cleaning
- Evaluation of tooth or gum pain
- Cavity assessment
- Gum health evaluation
- A personalized treatment plan
- Review of expected treatment costs
Treatment recommendations are based on your dental condition and individual needs, not on whether you have dental insurance.
Self-Pay Dental Care at Mesa Street Dental
Patients without dental insurance can receive care as self-pay patients at Mesa Street Dental.
If treatment is recommended, our team can review the expected fees with you before you proceed. This gives you an opportunity to understand the treatment plan, ask questions, and discuss available financial options.
For patients concerned about managing dental costs, we also offer an in-house Discount Loyalty Plan and access to Cherry payment plans.
Dental Visit Costs Without Insurance
There is no single price that applies to every dental visit because the cost depends on what care is needed.
For example, the cost of a routine examination and cleaning will be different from treatment for a broken tooth, root canal, dental crown, extraction, or dental implant.
Factors that may affect treatment costs include:
- Type of dental procedure
- Diagnostic X-rays or imaging required
- Complexity of treatment
- Tooth location
- Dental materials used
- Additional treatment that may be clinically necessary
After an examination, Mesa Street Dental can provide more specific information about the recommended treatment and expected fees.
Current Specials for Uninsured Patients
Mesa Street Dental currently offers specials specifically for patients without dental insurance.
Our current $149 New Patient Special includes a comprehensive exam and a full set of X-rays for eligible uninsured new patients. We also currently advertise a $99 Emergency Exam for non-insured patients that includes a focused clinical exam and diagnostic 2D imaging, along with 10% off eligible treatment completed the same day. Terms and eligibility requirements apply.
Because promotions and fees can change, patients should confirm current pricing and offer terms when scheduling.

Mesa Street Dental’s Discount Loyalty Plan
If you do not have traditional dental insurance, Mesa Street Dental offers an in-house Discount Loyalty Plan designed specifically for uninsured patients.
This is not dental insurance. Instead, you pay an annual membership fee in exchange for specified preventive services and discounts on eligible treatment provided at Mesa Street Dental.
We currently offer two plans.
Tier One: Regular Cleaning Plan
Our current Tier One plan is $350 per year and includes:
- 2 routine exams
- 2 regular cleanings
- 2 fluoride treatments
- 4 emergency exams
- All 2D X-rays
- 15% off eligible in-office treatment
Mesa Street Dental currently lists the estimated value of these benefits as $810.
Tier Two: Perio Cleaning Plan
Our current Tier Two plan is $475 per year and is designed for patients who require periodontal maintenance.
It includes:
- 2 routine exams
- 4 periodontal cleanings
- 4 fluoride treatments
- 4 emergency exams
- All 2D X-rays
- 15% off eligible in-office treatment
The currently listed estimated value is $1,070.
Members may also receive additional discounts on selected services, including take-home whitening trays, custom nightguards, CBCT scans, scaling and root planing, and qualifying family memberships. Specific terms and exclusions apply.
The Discount Loyalty Plan cannot be combined with insurance, other discounts, or promotions, and benefits apply only at Mesa Street Dental under the current plan terms.
Payment Plans at Mesa Street Dental
For patients who would prefer to spread eligible dental expenses over time, Mesa Street Dental also provides access to Cherry payment plans.
Our dedicated payment-plan page identifies Cherry as a financing option available through Mesa Street Dental in El Paso.
Financing is separate from our Discount Loyalty Plan and from dental insurance. Approval, payment amounts, financing terms, and eligibility are determined through the financing program.
If you are considering a larger treatment plan, our team can explain your expected dental fees so you can decide whether financing is an option you would like to explore.
Insurance Assistance at Mesa Street Dental
If you do have dental insurance, our team can help you understand and use your available benefits.
Mesa Street Dental states that its team reviews patients’ policies, answers insurance questions, submits claims on their behalf, and works with insurance providers regarding eligible payments.
Your actual coverage, deductible, annual maximum, reimbursement, and out-of-pocket responsibility depend on your individual insurance plan.
An estimate of insurance benefits should not be treated as a guarantee that an insurer will pay a particular amount.
Preventive Dental Care Without Insurance
You do not need to wait until you have tooth pain to visit Mesa Street Dental simply because you do not have insurance.
Preventive care can help us monitor your teeth and gums and identify concerns that may require attention.
Depending on your individual needs, preventive care may include:
- Dental exams
- Professional cleanings
- Digital X-rays when indicated
- Fluoride treatment
- Gum health evaluations
- Cavity monitoring
- Oral hygiene recommendations
For uninsured patients who plan to maintain routine preventive care, our Discount Loyalty Plan may be worth reviewing because the current plans include specific exams, cleanings, fluoride treatments, emergency exams, and 2D X-rays.
Restorative Dental Care Without Insurance
Mesa Street Dental also provides restorative dental treatment to patients without insurance.
Depending on your diagnosis, treatment options may include:
- Dental fillings
- Root canal therapy
- Same-day crowns
- Dental bridges
- Dentures
- Dental implants
- Tooth extractions
- Periodontal treatment
The appropriate procedure depends on the condition of your tooth and surrounding tissues.
For example, a smaller cavity may sometimes be restored with a filling, while a tooth with more extensive structural damage may require a crown or another treatment.
The goal is to diagnose the problem first and then discuss the appropriate treatment options with you.
Emergency Dental Care Without Insurance
Dental pain and injuries do not wait until you have insurance.
Mesa Street Dental currently offers a $99 Emergency Exam for non-insured patients. The advertised offer includes a focused clinical exam and diagnostic 2D imaging, with 10% off eligible same-day treatment under the current offer terms.
Contact our office promptly if you experience concerns such as:
- Severe or worsening tooth pain
- A broken tooth
- Dental swelling
- A lost filling or crown
- Dental trauma
- Signs of an infection
Difficulty breathing or swallowing, uncontrolled bleeding, rapidly increasing facial swelling, or significant facial trauma may require emergency medical care rather than waiting for a dental appointment.
Planning Larger Dental Treatment Without Insurance
If you need more than one dental procedure, Dr. Harrell can explain which concerns need more immediate attention and whether other treatment may reasonably be scheduled later.
Not every treatment plan can safely be delayed or divided into stages. Active infection, significant pain, progressive decay, or substantial structural damage may require more timely care.
For eligible treatment costs, patients can also review the Cherry payment plans available through Mesa Street Dental.
Our goal should be to make sure you understand:
- What treatment is being recommended
- Why it is recommended
- Which concerns require priority
- Expected costs
- Available alternatives when clinically appropriate
- Financial options available through our practice
This keeps the decision focused on both your oral-health needs and the information you need to plan for care.
Your Options at Mesa Street Dental
If you are concerned about paying for dental care, there are several different options available through our El Paso practice.
For uninsured patients: you can pay directly for treatment, review current uninsured-patient specials, or consider our Discount Loyalty Plan.
For patients interested in financing: Cherry payment plans are available to explore for eligible treatment.
For insured patients: our team can review your policy information and submit claims on your behalf.
These options are different from one another, so our team can explain what applies to your individual situation.
