How this Discount Dental Plan Can Save You Money
The American Dental Plan is a discount or "reduced-fee" dental plan. This plan is designed for health conscious consumers looking to maintain their oral health and minimize their dental care expenses.
General dentists who participate in the American Dental Plan have agreed to accept a discounted fee as payment in full for each service performed.* These discounted fees are up to 60% less than what a dentist would normally charge. A sample table of American Dental Plan discounted fees can be found below.
