I wanted a dentist that was affordable and of good quality. You only have one set of teeth and I didn’t want them negatively affected. I was able to save $1500 on my dental implants and my father in-law saved $1800 on his dentures with these plans. I tried to get a traditional individual dental insurance and I was running up against brick walls with the sign-up process and I was told I’d likely have to wait a year to get the plan activated. Without these plans, you are stuck paying ridiculous amount of money every time you visit regardless of what you are having done. These discount plans are great because they provide savings on everything from Braces, Gum surgery, Endodontics, and child dentistry. If seems that if you do not have a traditional insurance plan through your employer or work, you just simple do not have any type of coverage and you are stuck paying full price. Unless you have a discount dental program which will allow you to save a percentage off what you would normally pay for your dental care services. Studies show that you should go to the dentist for an oral exam, cleaning, and bitewing x-ray every 6-months, although it may no be necessary to get x-rayed more than once per year. If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges. Cosmetic dentists usually give a 20% discount on porcelain veneers and other types of Hollywood type of dentistry. |
