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. 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. 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 really added up to significant savings for me and over the course of a year saved my family $680.00 which more than covered the annual enrollment fee. Cosmetic dentists usually give a 20% discount on porcelain veneers and other types of Hollywood type of dentistry. Looking for a dental plan on the internet used to be very difficult. Most dentists do participate and I was shock to find my dentist participated in several of the plans in my area. Without these plans, you are stuck paying ridiculous amount of money every time you visit regardless of what you are having done. Saving anything at a specialist is better than paying full-price I always say. 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. |
