Most dentists do participate and I was shock to find my dentist participated in several of the plans in my area. Steps are being taken to correct this issue and soon there should be quality providers in every area of America. The provider list was very comprehensive in my area and there were providers within 3 miles of my house and work. Without these plans, you are stuck paying ridiculous amount of money every time you visit regardless of what you are having done. This is a great benefit and there are generally no hassells associated with these plans. 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. 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. 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. 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. These discount plans are great because they provide savings on everything from Braces, Gum surgery, Endodontics, and child dentistry. |
