They are all discount dental plans which means you save up to 60% on your dental care at their listing of participating providers in your area. This is a great benefit and there are generally no hassells associated with these plans. Steps are being taken to correct this issue and soon there should be quality providers in every area of America. I was able to save $1500 on my dental implants and my father in-law saved $1800 on his dentures with these plans. 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. Most dentists do participate and I was shock to find my dentist participated in several of the plans in my area. 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. But what I found was that looking online was be far the superior method of hunting down a good dentist in my area. With the discount plan I bought, I was approved with 48 hours and I was seeing my dentist like 2 days after getting my membership. 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. |
