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 are looking forward to having straight teeth. I was also able to switch plans once to a plan with lower fees on the root canal I needed. I wanted a dentist that was affordable and of good quality. You only have one set of teeth and I didn’t want them negatively affected. If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges. Without these plans, you are stuck paying ridiculous amount of money every time you visit regardless of what you are having done. 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. Cosmetic dentists usually give a 20% discount on porcelain veneers and other types of Hollywood type of dentistry. Comparing the various dental plans in my area was really easy when I could look at them side to side and really see the differences in pricing for different procedures. Looking for a dental plan on the internet used to be very difficult. |
