I was also able to switch plans once to a plan with lower fees on the root canal I needed. If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges. When looking for a new provider, I found myself going through the yellow pages looking for someone near my house that I could start visiting. 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 urge you to investigate discount plans because they are the wave of the future when it comes to saving money at the dentist. But what I found was that looking online was be far the superior method of hunting down a good dentist in my area. Without these plans, you are stuck paying ridiculous amount of money every time you visit regardless of what you are having done. I was able to save $1500 on my dental implants and my father in-law saved $1800 on his dentures with these plans. Comparing the various dental plans in my area was really easy when I could look at them side to side and really see the differences in pricing for different procedures. 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. |
