Discount Dental 101
Even if you already have dental insurance, the discounts
offered by our discount dental plans may be used after
your dental insurance plan maximum has been reached
for even more savings on your dental care. Please
consult with a participating dentist or dental care
specialist before beginning treatment.
DISCOUNT DENTAL PLAN
Characteristics Include:
-No annual limits –
plan members enjoy discounts on most dental
care services all year long.
-Most plans activate within 3 business days
No tiresome paperwork hassles – plan members simply
present their membership card at a participating
dentist office for discounts on most dental services.
-No health restrictions
there is no need to wait for comprehensive
dental treatment plans.
-Select plans include:
discounts on dental specialties, including cosmetic
dentistry and orthodontics.
-Consumers pay affordable membership fees
for access to a network of dentists offering
discounts on most dental procedures
-Available directly to individuals,
families, businesses and groups
For Example:
The majority of dental insurance policies have annual
maximums that are typically around $1000 to $1500.
So if you need dental care treatments that cost more than
$1000 like braces, root canals, crowns, oral surgery or
dentures, you will have to pay the difference with
a dental insurance plan.
How It Works
Discount dental plans are not dental insurance plans but dental
discount programs instead. Participating dentists have agreed
to accept a discounted fee from discount dental plan members
as payment-in-full for dental services performed. There are a
variety of other key differences between discount dental plans
and dental insurance plans. Select discount dental plans even
offer significant discounts on cosmetic dentistry services
like teeth whitening, bonding and veneers.
Additionally, since discount dental plans activate
within 3 business days and do not have any health restrictions, you won’t need to wait 6 to 18 months
to receive the dental care you need.
Discount dental plans are an affordable, easy-to-use and
hassle-free solution for anyone looking for dental care savings.
Alternatively, since discount dental plans do not have
annual limits, you can use your plan as often as needed.
Plus, our plans may even be used to reduce
your out-of-pocket dental care costs once
you’ve reached the annual maximum on your
dental insurance plan.
