Need dental work but no insurance?
Hello I dont have insurance and I need some dental work as okay as vision. Any advise on a perfect dental benefit plan (not insurance) the discounted cards? I need some gum work, whitening, maybe verbs one, and fixing a chip (front tooth). Thanks for all answers

Check your local colleges to see if they offer dental programs. I'm not sure what extent of work the students can do, but I do know that they offer the details such as cleaning for a minimal fee. You will have to ask something like other work. Allow yourself plenty of time though as it is a teaching environment and student's work needs to be checked. Sounds to me close to your stuff is pretty basic. Otherwise, most cities offer free clinics. Check your local sickly pages.
Try dentalplans.com, I use them.
The best individual policy is offered by Anthem. You can jump to anthem.com to get info, but know that no insurance will cover whitening. The discount cards are not very honourable and most dentist don't accept them. You can get a credit card thru CareCredit.com and they hold programs for 6,12 or 18 months with no financing. Good luck and I hope that helps. Source(s): Been contained by dentistry fof 18 years
best thing to do is to look in a few dental offices, they will have listings and advertisement there of plans that they take. This will also present you an idea of what plans are the most above board as a reputable office wont hold business relations that may lead to unhappy customers.
on the business of vision, stay away from pearle vision and other chains of the close to. Sears and Costco have some of the best non insurance prices. Source(s): Personal history and I work for a major insurance company to boot.
I feel your twinge. I have always have beautiful teeth but bad inheritance put my smile at risk and I was devastated. Some dentists were giving me estimates of $14,000.00! We, (my husband and myself) concluded up taking a loan out for $5,000.00 a few years back to complete the work I needed..and that didn't include the bottom teeth! So, I know where you're coming from.
You might want to try calling a few of the dental school in your area. The work is done by the students, but single the ones ready to graduate and an experienced dentist/doctor over sees adjectives of their work. Because they are still students it is done at greatly reduced prices. I've used this myself for several years now and, I'm happy to enunciate, have always be happy with the work I've have done. It may take a little longer to bring back an appt, and the students take longer than a dentist with experience, but to me it be worth it. Just a thought.
Good luck!
