How Protective Dental Plan Can Save You Money
The Protective 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 Protective Dental Plan have agreed to accept a discounted fee as payment in full for each service performed. These discounted fees are 20-60% less than what a dentist would normally charge. A sample table of Protective Dental Plan discounted fees can be found below.
