These discount plans are great because they provide savings on everything from Braces, Gum surgery, Endodontics, and child dentistry. 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. Without these plans, you are stuck paying ridiculous amount of money every time you visit regardless of what you are having done. The provider list was very comprehensive in my area and there were providers within 3 miles of my house and work. 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. My kids are looking forward to having straight teeth. 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. Steps are being taken to correct this issue and soon there should be quality providers in every area of America. 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. Saving anything at a specialist is better than paying full-price I always say. |
