How this Discount Dental Plan Can Save You Money
The First Dental Health Access 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 and specialists who participate in the First Dental Health Access 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 First Dental Health Access Plan discounted fees can be found below.
