what the best dental insurance i can get being self employed? i find a lot of dental plans?
These so called dental plans sound sketchy . and i cant find dental insurance in louisiana from someone i have heard of . anyone have any suggestions?
There is Delta Dental, but it is expensive and only covers cleanings and oral exams and up to a certain amount of fillings and extractions.
AmeriPlan USA is the best alternative to “dental insurance”. I’ve checked everywhere myself and finally went wtih AmeriPlan. We only pay $20 a month for our entire family and only go in when we need work done. We save 50-80% off everything dental related!! we pay $47 per cleaning and only go twice a year.. that’s WAY better than paying at least $50 a month for Dental Insurance! And when you need crowns or fillings they are 60% off reg. price.. (which depends on which dentist you see)
Check out their Dental Plus plan at the website below it gives the breakdown of all your discounts for your area.
I can also tell you how I use my own dental plan through AmeriPlan and how it works exactly.

Dental Plans?
Anyone have any experiences with Dental Plans? I don’t have dental insurance and I probably need to have a fixed bridge or something for my four front teeth. I don’t have a lot of money.
You have four options with dental.
1. Visit a local dental school. You can get many procedures done for a reduced price if you’re willing to let them practice on you.
2. Insurance – Depending upon the policy: cost $30-$60 per month. You pay a $50 deductible first, they have an annual maximum that they’ll pay per year of $750 – $1500, they have a waiting period up to 18 months for major work and then you’re paying 50% of the charges. Example – average cost for a root canal in my area is $829. With insurance you pay $414 after paying 18 months of premium (around $800 or $900). Advantage – you can use any dentist with most plans.
3. Discount plans – Cost – $5-$12 per month. No deductible, no annual maximum and no waiting periods. Also, hardly any dentists will accept the plan and when they do you MIGHT get a 10% discount, which is about the same discount you can get by paying cash. Example – average cost for a root canal in my area is $829. With discount plans you pay around $746. Be very wary of these plans because most are scams. The people that sell these plans have little or no knowledge about health & dental insurance and do not need a license to sell them. The plans are not regulated by the state so you have no recourse when you have problems. Some states are starting to ban these plans from being sold. Here is an informative link http://www.insurancejournal.com/news/west/2006/11/22/74554.htm concerning these plans.
4. Fee for Service discount plans – Cost $7-$15 per month. No deductible, no annual maximum and no waiting periods. Many dentist will accept the plan (check providers first before signing up with any plan). When you use the plan there is a set fee that the dentist will charge you, which you know before getting the procedure done. Example – average cost for a root canal in my area is $829. With fee for service plans you pay as little as $404.
I’m an insurance agent and my personal plan is the fee for service plan. I got mine here http://www.dpbrokers.com/default.aspx?locationid=20349 specifically the Aetna Dental Access plan but which one you get depends upon your area and comparing the fee schedule to find the best for what you need covered.
What’s the difference between dental insurance and dental plans?
I need to see a dentist and don’t get coverage through work. I’ve googled dental insurance, but dental plans keep coming up. What’s the difference? and can you recommend any specific insurance or plan? I live in the SF Bay Area.
They are actually the same. Plan sounds better than insurance in a sales pitch. Most businesses offer employees health insurance plans.
Either one can have restrictions, such as requiring you to go to a specific group of dentists.
Dental plans???
I have anthem medical insurance through my employer. Does anyone know if anthem has dental insurance and how much in generally cost per month? If not anthem, does anyone know of any good individual plans?
