Discount dental plans are designed for people to save money. Dentists who participate in these plans have agreed to accept a fee from plan members that is lower than that of their normal rate. Dental plans should not be confused with dental insurance, as there are significant differences between the two.
For example, many dental insurance plans have annual maximums, typically between $1,000 and $1,500 dollars. If you need dental treatment that is more than the maximum (such as braces, a root canal or dental crown), you are responsible for paying the difference with dental insurance. There are also no limits on the number of visits you can have with a discount plan. Plus, dental plans can reduce the out-of-pocket costs associated with a dental insurance plan. So, even if you already have dental insurance, the discounts offered by a dental plan can be used after the maximum amount has been reached. This means even more savings for dental care! |
So, if you are serious about saving on dental costs, take the first step toward a more affordable and healthier smile.
