How to Choose the Best Dental Savings Plan for You

To maximize your dental savings and ensure optimal oral health, consider how UNO DENTAL's in-house plan aligns with your specific needs.

First, assess your dental needs. Are you focused on routine cleanings, or do you anticipate major work like crowns or cosmetic improvements? Our plan covers a full spectrum of services, so knowing your needs helps you see the value.

Next, consider if you need individual or family coverage. We offer options to extend savings to your entire family, which is valuable when multiple members need care.

With our in-house plan, the provider network is simple: you receive care from our experienced team at UNO DENTAL SAN FRANCISCO. This ensures continuity of care from a team that knows your dental history.

Finally, compare plan costs against potential savings. Our memberships start at an affordable $7-$15 per month (billed annually). With average savings of 50%, the plan often pays for itself after a single filling or cleaning. For major work, the savings can be substantial.

Who Benefits Most from a Dental Savings Plan?

While anyone can benefit from our plan's simplicity and savings, certain individuals find it particularly valuable:

  • Self-employed individuals and freelancers who lack employer-provided benefits find our plan's predictable costs and immediate savings invaluable.
  • Retirees and seniors on fixed incomes find our plan to be an excellent way to manage dental costs, especially since Medicare doesn't cover most routine dental care. As financial expert Suze Orman has noted, dental savings plans can be a great option.
  • Patients needing immediate major work can bypass frustrating waiting periods and get care right away.
  • Employees without dental benefits at startups, small businesses, or other companies can access affordable care without relying on an employer plan.
  • Anyone seeking cosmetic dentistry can receive valuable discounts on services like veneers, teeth whitening, or clear aligners, which are typically paid for out-of-pocket.
