How do I get dental discounts?

When you’re looking to save money, it’s a good idea to look at all your options. You can get discounts in a variety of ways, from applying for Medicaid to using employee benefits or other insurance options. We’ll discuss each option below so you can find the one that works best for you.

Negotiate with your dentist

Negotiate. If you’re a loyal patient, ask if they’ll give you a discount. Consider paying in installments or asking for a referral fee (if they do not offer one, consider finding another, more affordable dentist). Ask about any loyalty programs that might apply to your situation. Ask about senior citizen discounts if applicable.

Apply for Medicaid.

If you’re a low-income adult, you may qualify for Medicaid. If you’re a child, there’s also CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program) available in some states. If you are pregnant or disabled and meet income requirements, then there’s no reason why you shouldn’t apply for Medicaid.

Look into the Affordable Care Act

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is a healthcare reform law that was passed in 2010. It aims to make health insurance more accessible and affordable for people who need it most, including those with pre-existing conditions like dental problems and cavities. Under the ACA, you can get dental discounts if you’re eligible for Medicaid or CHIP (Children’s Health Insurance Program). These programs are administered by each state government; however, eligibility requirements vary from state to state.

Consider employee benefits or other insurance options.

If you’re still a little hazy on the details of dental insurance, here are some things to consider:

  • Look into your employer’s benefits. Many companies offer dental discounts or even free cleanings as part of their employee packages.
  • Consider your spouse’s insurance options. Many spouses have access to family-friendly plans that include dental coverage at a lower rate than if they were purchased separately by individuals on their own–and sometimes with better coverage than individual plans offer!
  • Check out the options for your kids’ school district or daycare center (if applicable). Some schools offer discount programs for parents who want their kids’ teeth cleaned regularly–and those discounts may be transferable if there are gaps between terms!
