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. 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. 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. I was also able to switch plans once to a plan with lower fees on the root canal I needed. 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. I was able to save $1500 on my dental implants and my father in-law saved $1800 on his dentures with these plans. Looking for a dental plan on the internet used to be very difficult. These discount plans are great because they provide savings on everything from Braces, Gum surgery, Endodontics, and child dentistry. 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. Cosmetic dentists usually give a 20% discount on porcelain veneers and other types of Hollywood type of dentistry. |
