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. Most dentists do participate and I was shock to find my dentist participated in several of the plans in my area. If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges. The provider list was very comprehensive in my area and there were providers within 3 miles of my house and work. 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 highly recommend these discount dental programs because they really do help you to save money on everything from cosmetic dentistry, laser dentistry, whitening, fillings, wisdon teeth extractions, oral surgery, braces, gum surgery, and just about every other dental procedure. My kids will be getting braces and we look forward to saving 20% on the entire cost of orthodontic treatment. 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. 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. |
