Steps are being taken to correct this issue and soon there should be quality providers in every area of America. 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. This is a great benefit and there are generally no hassells associated with these plans. 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. If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges. 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. 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. 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. My kids will be getting braces and we look forward to saving 20% on the entire cost of orthodontic treatment. |
