The Michels & Gauquie Dental Wellness Plan is an in-office discount plan designed to assist patients without dental insurance who would like to invest in their smile. The details of the plan, including annual premiums and coverage, are outlined below. If you have any questions, please call our office at 252-752-1600.

We understand the difficulties and complications that can arise when working with insurance companies. Whether it’s high out-of-pocket costs, low maximums, or lack of procedure coverage, we understand that insurance doesn’t always benefit our patients as much as it should. This is why we developed the Michels & Gauquie Wellness Plan, to be used exclusively at Michels & Gauquie. The Michels & Gauquie Wellness Plan is a discount plan designed to help you keep up with your preventative visits and get any needed treatment done in an affordable manner. There is no maximum, no deductible, no waiting period, and no claims or denials.

Exclusions and Limitations

This plan is not insurance. This plan is not refundable under any circumstance. Appointments are subject to availability, and lack of availability does not constitute a refund or additional discount. If a service covered at 100% is not used by the expiration date of the plan, the patient forfeits that service and it does not rollover. This plan cannot be combined with any other discount or insurance. This plan runs for 365 days, including the day the premium is paid. Office fees are subject to change at the office’s discretion. Any procedure in progress or performed before the member’s eligibility date is excluded. This plan can only be used at Michels & Gauquie, and it is not applicable if the patient is referred to a specialist’s office. The doctor will work with the patient to decide the best course of treatment. If third party financing is used, the General Care Courtesy will be reduced to 10%, and the Specialty Care Courtesy will be reduced to 5%.

Best dentist office I’ve been to in my 28 years.
Iam very afraid of a dentist but the staff at Michaels&Gauquie made me so comfortable and calm to extract two teeth for the first time in my life and I'm 62 years old Dr.Gauquie was so nice and reassuring me about the procedure that made me feel better then it was over and I was so amazed the next day and comfortable with a little soreness I love this dentist family they will definitely see my smile again Thank you guys you are the BEST❣️❣️❣️
10/10 ⭐️⭐️It took me a week to write this message… My first check-up appointment was amazing! They welcomed me with gifts, with love, and excellent customer service. Jessica and the other girls were so kind—they make you feel safe and cared for. 20/20!⭐️⭐️

I had 3 wisdom teeth removed and also got a gum cleaning.
The wisdom teeth were removed on 07/16/2025, and today is the 17th—I’m not in any pain at all. 20/20 ⭐️⭐️for the doctors! Jessica was there to make you feel calm and secure. Everything was super quick. The place is super clean and well organized. Miss Ivy answered all my questions clearly—everything was excellent. I have no complaints. See you soon for my fast braces!
Dr Jake Carter is excellent! I do not like going to the dentist but he and his assisstant Nichole did a great job!
I’m a 75-year-old patient of theirs. I’ve been told by dentists that I apparently have poor oral genetics. Both my parents had full dentures in their early 30s. I also have not been the best at brushing and flossing but have always seen a dentist regularly throughout my life. So, I have had a lot of dental work, fillings, root canals, crowns, and implants. (More in the next chat due to character limit)

Dr. McGee has performed two root canals with crowns in the past year. Both of those were excellent work, and based on what I said above, I consider myself an expert (from a patient’s perspective). Today’s visit for a root canal was the most painless I have experienced. Their entire staff presents a professional and courteous environment for patients. I would highly recommend Michels & Gauquie.
I've waited almost a week to write this review because I didn't know how to begin it! Let's just say AMAZING! I had Dr. Chan assisted by Kayla. They were absolutely wonderful! They worked diligently as a team to assure that I was comfortable at all times during my visit! Oh and funnnny! They had me laughing the entire time! This really helped me take my mind off of the root canal I was having! Excellent duo! Thanks again fo all you do!! THE best dentistry around by far! I wish i could give more starts! They definitely deserve it!❤️
Everything !!! Very friendly !!! Most professional!!
From the reception desk to check out, my experience was exceptional. Malorie, my Dental Hygienist, and Dentist, Dr. Harrell were wonderful. I highly recommend them to everyone. Extremely professional service!
Going to the dentist here feels like you're going to the spa. They'll do everything to make you comfortable, from the massage chairs and tvs, to the beverages and sweet people. They actually listen to concerns and find solutions. We took a break from going, because our insurance wasn't accepted at one point. I missed them and was so happy when I found out our insurance was accepted again. Even my kids are looking forward to their appointments!
After 9 months of appointments, last week I received the first report of “no cavities” that I can ever remember. I am not a fan of going to the dentist but I am a big fan of Dr Gauquie, his patient staff, and sedation dentistry !
