Save Money on Dental Care

The cost of dental care can be hard for a family, but that should not prevent you from getting the dental services you need to maintain a healthy smile for life.  Forest Lane Dental, the office of Dr. Jack E. Burroughs offers these tips for saving money on dental care.

1.  Take advantage of special promotions.  Forest Lane Dental offers new patients a special discount when they establish themselves as a patient of the practice.  An exam and necessary x-rays is $59, making a check up affordable for families without dental insurance.  Other special promotions are available as well, from dental crowns for just $599 to cosmetic teeth whitening products at a special rate as well.  To see all the money saving promotions available right now, click here.

2. Do not skip dental cleanings and check-ups.  A professional dental cleaning is one of the most affordable dental treatments available, and one of the most important.  Removing hardened plaque (tartar) and cleaning hard to reach surfaces of your teeth helps prevent serious dental problems like tooth decay and gum disease.  Brushing and flossing alone cannot remove tartar build up, so having your teeth professionally cleaned at least twice a year achieves this important step.  In addition, regular dental check-ups help detect problems while they are still small, making dental restorations simpler and less expensive.

3.  Maximize your dental insurance contributions.  Dental insurance is designed to reward prevention of dental problems.  Most dental plans cover the cost of regular dental maintenance in full.  Take advantage of this fact! Stay on schedule with check ups and cleanings for free with most PPO dental plans.  If you do need repairs, take care of them as soon as they are diagnosed to save on the cost of treatment.

4. Get A Pre-Estimate. When more complex dental restoration is necessary, such as with dental crowns, bridges or even root canal treatment, ask your dentist to request an insurance "pre-estimate" from your dental plan.  This will give you a pretty accurate picture of the cost of treatment as well as exactly what will be paid by your plan on your behalf.

5.  Utilize Interest Free Financing.  Your Dallas dental office accepts payment through Care Credit.  This finance option makes it possible to break more extensive dental treatment fees down into smaller bites with a monthly payment plan, often with no interest when paid within 6 months.
