    Default What's the best dental insurance?

    I'm shopping for dental insurance but I want a plan that will cover medically necessary surgery. Which company deserves raves?

    I use a dental discount plan. Do you have any interest in that?

    They jsut cap the prices that procedures can cost as long as you use dentists in their network.

    I thought having a percentage off was best. I hadn't thought about a plan like that. I guess it depends.

    I use Ameriplan. It about $49 per month/per person & $59 for the whole house hold. You can save anywhere from 10% - 80% off of any kind off health procedure. You just have to make sure that your doctor can use them.

    ^^^^^^Then you should know that Ameriplan is a thinly veiled get-rich-quick-pyramid scheme. http://www.ripoffreport.com/results....&q5=Ameriplan+

    I have delta dental, through my company. I'm not sure how they work with self-insureds, but my coverage is OK.

    Free exams 2x/yr, 1 set of x-rays/yr, 80% basic fillings, 50% most oral surgeries, etc. Max $1K coverage per year.

    For the premium, I pay $3/week out of my check, my company pays about $8/wk I think.

    I've settled on a discount plan for my first year of coverage and I may sign up for insurance. I don't have any big dental issues just maxillary exostosis which is unsexy but not life threatening!
