Tired of Dental Insurance Headaches?
Here’s How Our Out-of-Network Office & Dental Savings Plans Can Actually Save You Money!
Navigating dental insurance can often feel like a maze of deductibles, annual maximums, and confusing rules. For many individuals, especially those aged 39 to 65 and beyond, traditional dental insurance plans simply don't offer the comprehensive, transparent, and flexible coverage needed for ongoing oral health.
At Relaxation Dental in Salida, CO, we've made a conscious choice to be an out-of-network dental provider. Why? Because it allows us to prioritize your care — not insurance company mandates. This approach, paired with the power of dental savings plans (DSPs), offers a superior alternative that can save you significant money and provide access to the high-quality dentistry you deserve.
Let's explore why this combination is a game-changer for your dental health and your wallet, particularly if you're in the 39-65+ age bracket.
Say Goodbye to Restrictive Annual Maximums
One of the most frustrating aspects of typical dental insurance coverage is the annual maximum. Often capped at a mere $1,000 to $1,500, this limit is quickly exhausted if you need more than just routine cleanings – a single crown or root canal can often use up your entire year's benefits. For those 39-65+ who may be facing more complex dental needs, this cap can lead to significant out-of-pocket dental costs.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: With a DSP, there are no annual maximums. You receive discounts on every covered procedure, regardless of how much dental work you need throughout the year. This means continuous savings, no matter your treatment plan.
No More Deductibles to Clear
Before your dental insurance even begins to pay, most plans require you to meet a deductible. This upfront cost can deter people from seeking necessary care, especially for minor issues that could become major problems if neglected.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: Dental savings plans typically have no deductibles. Your discounts begin from your very first visit, making quality affordable dental care immediately accessible without that initial hurdle.
Immediate Savings, No Waiting Periods
Ever tried to get a procedure covered only to find your dental insurance plan has a 6- or 12-month waiting period? This can be incredibly inconvenient, particularly if you're dealing with a sudden dental issue or can't afford to delay treatment.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: DSPs usually offer immediate discounts. As soon as you join the plan, you can begin saving on your dental treatments. This "no waiting" policy is crucial for proactive care and addressing urgent needs.
More Comprehensive Coverage, Beyond the Basics
Traditional dental insurance benefits often focus on basic preventive and restorative care, leaving little to no coverage for procedures like cosmetic dentistry (veneers, whitening) or major restorative work such as dental implants. As we age, these services become increasingly relevant for maintaining function, aesthetics, and overall oral health.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: Many dental savings plans provide discounts on a much wider array of services, including cosmetic procedures, orthodontics, and implants. This means you can pursue the treatments you truly need and want, at a reduced cost, without being limited by your dental plan's narrow definitions.
Simpler, More Transparent Dental Costs
Understanding your dental insurance benefits can be baffling. Explanation of Benefits (EOB) forms are often confusing, and surprise bills or denied claims are common. This lack of transparency can make budgeting for dental care a nightmare.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: With a DSP, transparency is key. You'll know your discounted price upfront, eliminating any guesswork. You pay our office directly at the time of service, which means no messy claims, no waiting for reimbursements, and no unexpected financial surprises. It's straightforward, clear, and designed for your peace of mind.
Maintain Your Trusted Provider Choice
Many dental insurance plans force you into a restrictive network of providers, often penalizing you financially if you choose an out-of-network dentist you trust. This means compromising on the quality of care or the relationship you've built with your dental team.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: When you choose our out-of-network dental office and pair it with a dental savings plan, you get the best of both worlds. You continue to receive the high-quality, personalized care you've come to expect from us, while still enjoying significant discounts on our services. You get to choose the best dentist for you.
An Ideal Solution for Medicare Beneficiaries
For seniors, especially those on Original Medicare, finding adequate dental coverage is a major concern as Medicare typically does not cover routine dental care. While some Medicare Advantage plans offer dental benefits, these often come with strict limitations, high deductibles, and restrictive networks.
The Dental Savings Plan Difference: Dental savings plans are an excellent, affordable dental solution for Medicare beneficiaries. They provide a straightforward way to access discounted dental services without the complexities and limitations of traditional Medicare dental plans.
