Dr. Hurtado Dentistry

Dr. Hurtado’s office accepts most major dental insurance plans. Many of our patients are covered through Delta Dental, which is the most common provider among Santa Barbara’s largest employers. We also regularly work with Cigna, MetLife, Aetna, Principal, Guardian, Blue Shield, UnitedHealthcare, Ameritas, and Humana. Because each insurance company offers a wide range of plans, coverage can vary. We’re happy to help you verify your benefits and eligibility—completely free of charge. Just give our office a call, and our team will gladly confirm your coverage and assist with coordinating your benefits before your appointment.

Absolutely. We offer gentle pediatric cleanings and preventive care for the whole family.

Invisalign is a great option if you want to straighten your teeth without the look or hassle of traditional braces. The clear aligners are comfortable, removable, and almost invisible — so you can eat, brush, and smile with confidence throughout treatment.It’s ideal for most people with mild to moderate crowding, gaps, or bite issues like overbites or crossbites. If you’ve had braces before and your teeth have shifted, Invisalign can often help with that too. The best way to know for sure is to come in for a consultation. Dr. Hurtado will take digital scans, review your goals, and let you know if Invisalign is the right fit for your smile. We’ll also go over your insurance and payment options before getting started.

Getting started is easy! Just call our office or request an appointment online. We’ll help you schedule a convenient time and verify your insurance benefits before your visit. At your first appointment, Dr. Hurtado will do a full exam, take any needed X-rays, and discuss your dental goals or concerns. We make the process simple, comfortable, and tailored to your needs.
