If seems that if you do not have a traditional insurance plan through your employer or work, you just simple do not have any type of coverage and you are stuck paying full price. Studies show that you should go to the dentist for an oral exam, cleaning, and bitewing x-ray every 6-months, although it may no be necessary to get x-rayed more than once per year. When looking for a new provider, I found myself going through the yellow pages looking for someone near my house that I could start visiting. My kids will be getting braces and we look forward to saving 20% on the entire cost of orthodontic treatment. Comparing the various dental plans in my area was really easy when I could look at them side to side and really see the differences in pricing for different procedures.
