Research Notes on Affordable Individual Dental Plans


Whether you are self-employed or unable to receive dental coverage through your employer or individual health insurance plan, you can obtain affordable dental insurance. Two common options for affordable dental care are available: private dental insurance and discount dental plans. What makes an individual dental plan different is that the dental coverage is sold directly to the client by the insurance provider.1 Discount dental plans offer discounts on dental services through a plan membership.2

Fast Facts:

  • Discount dental plans typically require an annual membership fee; fees for services are often deeply discounted.2
  • Dental insurance plans typically require a monthly fee and possibly a deductible or co-insurance premium.3
  • Use your zip code to search dental plans in your area and locate participating providers.4
