admin Hello, I have a dental insurance plan that will not cover the 4 dental implants I need (all molars). The last couple of plans I have had told me the same thing, and my dentist tells me no dental insurance plan will help with these, as they are considered cosmetic. I am sick of it and need to get started on these implants ASAP. My dentist recommended looking into a dental discount plan, which would cost a couple hundred a year, but would save $500-$1000 per implant. If this is true, I am very interested in applying for a plan in my area.
Before I do so, I would like to know if anyone else has any experience in this area. Any particular plan I should look into? Any other info I should know about?
Thanks in advance!
My insurance company wants me to have bridges, which is out of the question as I am only 22 years old. I am NOT destroying more teeth to have bridges put in that will only last 7-10 years, where implants are life-long if I take good care of them. I agree, it is most certainly not cosmetic. Alas, it is not up to me.
