We want you to live life with a clean, healthy mouth—and both dental savings plans and dental insurance can help you do that. But it’s important to consider the differences between these plans and choose the one that best matches your needs. Let’s dive in.
Dental savings plans
If you need more than just preventive care—or you’d rather only pay for the services you need—this option might be for you.
Dental savings plans give you unlimited access to reduced rates on nearly every procedure, with no annual limit.
Plus, you don’t have to spend a certain amount of money before savings kick in.
Once you pay your annual membership, you simply show your card at the dentist to claim your savings.
You can use it right away
There’s no need to wait to use your dental savings plan. You get access to reduced rates on dental care within days of signing up.
You can save on virtually any procedure
We mean it. You can save on virtually any dental procedure, big or small, with your dental savings plan. And plan members say they save an average of 50% off*.
You can switch plans any time
If your needs change, your plan can too. Any time. For any reason. Just give us a call and we’ll make sure you have the best plan for the dental care you have coming up.
Dental insurance
Do you only need preventive care like your cleanings and check-ups? Dental insurance typically covers preventive care at 100%, making it a great option if you don’t need larger dental work.
Some insurance plans allow you to go to dental practices in or out of network, though the out-of-pocket costs are typically higher when you go out of network.
Keep in mind that dental insurance works differently than medical insurance. Most dental insurances will cover expenses until you hit your annual maximum (the most they’ll pay for your dental care in a year) then you’ll be responsible for the rest. We recommend keeping a close eye on your deductibles, annual caps, uncovered procedures, and any waiting periods.
Coverage in and out of network
Some insurance plans allow you to go to dental practices in and out-of-network, though the out-of-pocket costs are typically higher when you go out of network.
They cover 100% of preventive care
Your preventive care—like routine teeth cleanings, x-rays, and oral exams—are usually covered at 100% by dental insurance.
They cover 80% of the basics
Most dental insurance plans cover 80% of cavity fillings, simple extractions, and deep teeth cleanings until you hit your maximum.
