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.

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.

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.

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.

Most dentists do participate and I was shock to find my dentist participated in several of the plans in my area.

This is a great benefit and there are generally no hassells associated with these plans.

If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges.

But what I found was that looking online was be far the superior method of hunting down a good dentist in my area.

I urge you to investigate discount plans because they are the wave of the future when it comes to saving money at the dentist.
