Some Quick Insurance Facts

We educate our patients about the pros and cons of dental insurance .

  1. It is based on minimal necessity, not optimal quality.
  2. In reality, it is not insurance, it is a prepaid stipend, use it or loose it.
  3. Employers pick the plans and fee schedules that widely vary. Often the difference between in network and out is minimal.
  4. Plans that force folks to a list of providers are typically suboptimal at best. . 2 generations and 70+ yrs. of combined experience provide confirmation. Do you want cheap dentistry or quality dentistry?
