How can I find reasonably priced dental insurance for me and my family? You have five options for dental care.
1. Go without insurance. If you have good teeth and just want the basics, you probably do not need a plan. An annual cleaning and exam and even an occasional filling will cost you less without insurance.
2. Visit a local dental school. You can get many procedures done for a reduced price if you're willing to let them practice on you.
3. Insurance - Depending on the policy: a cost of $ 30 - $ 60 per month. You pay a $ 50 deductible first, they have a yearly maximum they will pay per year of $ 750 - $ 1500, they have a waiting period of up to 18 months for major work, then you pay 50% of loads. Example - average cost of a root canal in my area is $ 919. With insurance you pay $ 460 after paying 18 months of premium (around $ 800 or $ 900). Advantage - you can use any dentist with most plans.
4. Discount plans - Cost - $ 5 - $ 12 per month. No deductibles, no annual maximum and no waiting periods. Also, only dentists accept the plan and when you might get a discount of 10%, which is about the same discount you can get by paying cash. Example - average cost of a root canal in my area is $ 919. With discount plans you pay around $ 827. Be very wary of these plans because most are scams. People who sell these plans have little or no knowledge of health and dental insurance and do not need a permit to sell. The plans are not regulated by the state if you have no recourse if you have any problems. Some states are starting to ban these plans to be sold. Here's an informative link ... http://www.insurancejournal.com/news/wes on these plans.
5. Fee for Service discount plans - Cost $ 7 - $ 15 per month. No deductibles, no annual maximum and no waiting periods. Many dentists accept the plan (check providers first before signing with a plan). When you use the plan there is a fixed amount that the dentist will charge. Example - average cost of a root canal in my area is $ 919. With a fee for service plans you pay as little as $ 404.
I am an insurance agent and my personal plan is the fee for service plan. I got mine here ... http://www.dpbrokers.com/default.aspx?lo specifically Aetna Dental Access plan but which one you get depends on your area and compare the pricing to find the best for what you need covered.
