Low Income Dental Care

Most people from time to time have been frustrated by the rising cost of most dental procedures.  Yet, many of us, realizing how important dental care is, simply gather together our resources and simply endure the costs.  However, for people with limited financial resources these costs can actually be the cause of them avoiding trips to the dentist altogether.  People who are on limited incomes are therefore susceptible to tooth decay and other problems that can arise as a result of poor dental care.  For these people there are resources that can help them handle the costs of visiting the dentists.  One of those alternatives is dental health plans.  By using a dental health plan, patients can pay an annual fee which grants them access to a nationwide network of qualified dental professionals whose services they can use at a reduced rate.  Access to these professionals thus adds affordability and convenience to what would otherwise be an arduous effort to seek out dental care.

With the use of dental plans, members have access to procedures as routine as cleanings and x-rays to more complicated procedures such as crowns, root canal surgery, dental implants and various dental emergency services.  In other words, every procedure that insurance would cover, plan participants also enjoy.  Finally, while dental plan coverage is not the same as dental insurance, it does help low income patients with the rising cost of visiting the dentist.  At Family Dental Health Plans we are proud to help patients who are income limited gain access to high quality dental care at prices that aren’t prohibitive.
