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. 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. If seems that if you do not have a traditional insurance plan through your employer or work, you just simple do not have any type of coverage and you are stuck paying full price. My kids will be getting braces and we look forward to saving 20% on the entire cost of orthodontic treatment. 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. I urge you to investigate discount plans because they are the wave of the future when it comes to saving money at the dentist. These discount plans are great because they provide savings on everything from Braces, Gum surgery, Endodontics, and child dentistry. I was able to save $1500 on my dental implants and my father in-law saved $1800 on his dentures with these plans. I was also able to switch plans once to a plan with lower fees on the root canal I needed. |
