Actually, this is a no brainer, if you are familiar with big discount dental plans. These plans offer discounts of anywhere from 10-60% off of the normal fees that you would pay without the plan. This savings can become quite large on certain procedures. Here's an example of saving BIG at the dentist with discount plans.

Let's say that you are an individual who's employer doesn't offer any type of dental care. Because of this, you haven't been able to visit a dentist in a couple of years. During this time you've developed terrible pain in one of your teeth, although it's not visibly decayed too badly. You are probably in need of a Root Canal. In this example we're going to say that the tooth in need of repair is a front tooth. These are normally substantially less than a Bicuspid or Molar.

One day a friend notices your pain and suggests getting a dental discount plan. You look into a few different plans in your area and this is what you find: The usual fee for this dental procedure without the plan is $542.00. You've found a plan that will do the work for you for just $297.00, a savings of $245.00. The cost of this plan is only $119.95 per year. This means that right off the bat you've saved $125.05, PLUS you still have the entire year to take advantage of any other dental treatment that you may need at a substantial discount. Adult teeth cleaning, normally $75.00 is only $36.00 for you now, savings of $39.00. Bite-Wing X-rays are free! A savings of $49.00! Are starting to get the picture?

This, of course depends on the area of the country that you live in and the plan that you purchase. This example was based on using a plan in the Scottsdale, Arizona area. You may save less, however, you may save even more. The most expensive cost of getting a Root Canal performed lies with a Molar tooth. These usually cost as much as $829.00, but are only $472.00 with this plan, a savings of $357.00. There are also other plans that cost less than the one described above.

If you are need of dental care I highly recommend that you look into these big discount dental plans where you can sometimes get BIG savings for yourself and/or your family.
