DentalPlans.com: A Dental Insurance Alternative (Discount Code and Giveaway)

in being thrifty, giveaways, Holiday Shopping Solutions, mommy solutions, product reviews

In today’s economy, many of us are struggling. We are finding ways to be thrifty, ways to cut our household spending and possibly alternatives to things we may have considered a necessity just ten years ago, but now we consider a luxury. This can be especially true when it comes to healthcare and dental care. It is sad, but it truly is a dilemma many are faced with.

Today I want to share with you a dental insurance alternative, that could be an excellent gift for a family out there.

About DentalPlans.com

Dental Plans.com is one of our holiday solution providers. They are an online service that helps you find dentists (over 100,000 in their network) and dental savings plans, an affordable alternative to dental insurance nationwide. They offer dental plans starting at $129.95 for the entire family or $79.95 for individuals PER YEAR! You can save 10-60% off most dental procedures including orthodontics. This is a gift that lasts year round!

10% to 60% off most dental care procedures
Savings at 100,000+ dentists across the country
30+ plans to search, compare and view sample savings by ZIP code
Savings on cosmetic dentistry and orthodontia
No annual limits, health restrictions or paperwork hassles
Most plans activate within three business days
Plans start at $79.95 per year for individuals and $129.95 per year for families

DentalPlans.com has given Crystal & Co., a one year family membership to review. I will tell you, setting everything up has been absolutely painless and simple. There were so many dentists in my area who accept the plan- so far the hardest part has been choosing a dentist. We simply chose our dentist and a DentalPlans.com representative called and our account was set up in less than 15 minutes. Now it is time for me to schedule cleanings and annual exams for everyone in my household. With DentalPlans.com our checkup will be significantly discounted. In other words, a cleaning for my kid’s will be $37 per child instead of $75. We are excited!

Discount Code

78 Jeanne R December 2, 2011 at 9:06 am: What makes this a great idea-even if you have dental insurance. I currently have a fantastic dental insurance plan, but next year will be covered under a different plan that has a yearly limit. If I have dentalPlan.com discount, that is similar in discount to what my insurance would have paid, it reduces the yearly limit reduction. For example-I have a crown, that my insurance covers at 50% after ded. The crown is going to cost me $300.00 (this is not a real figure) and it is going to reduce the amount of money allowable under my insurance for the year. If my insurance covers $500.00 per year, that is a drastic reduction. If I can get a discount through DentalPlans.com that keeps my cost to $300.00, I can save the dental insurance for other yearly expenses that may occur. I also may find that there are discounts for services that are standardly not covered under my insurance. This looks like a win/win to me!
