I urge you to investigate discount plans because they are the wave of the future when it comes to saving money at the dentist. If you have pre-existing conditions you are still accepts, all of your dental work will be discounted from the dentist's normal charges. My kids will be getting braces and we look forward to saving 20% on the entire cost of orthodontic treatment. Steps are being taken to correct this issue and soon there should be quality providers in every area of America. I was also able to switch plans once to a plan with lower fees on the root canal I needed. 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. These discount plans are great because they provide savings on everything from Braces, Gum surgery, Endodontics, and child dentistry. 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. 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. |
