Make sure you choose a plan that will let go to a dentist near your house or make need to choose a specialist in you need more advanced type of dental correction. 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. The provider list was very comprehensive in my area and there were providers within 3 miles of my house and work. This is a great benefit and there are generally no hassells associated with these plans. 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. Most dentists do participate and I was shock to find my dentist participated in several of the plans in my area. Unless you have a discount dental program which will allow you to save a percentage off what you would normally pay for your dental care services. Steps are being taken to correct this issue and soon there should be quality providers in every area of America. 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. |
