Funny you ask this question. I get all my health care through the VA, my doctor, physiatrist, pills, everything, but not my dental. Dont ask me why, I don't know. So I had to go out and get my own coverage. What a pain in the ass. I found that they are mostly the same, depending on your deductible. All the plans I looked into had waiting periods for the major stuff, the stuff I need done of course. I pay 72. dollars a month and my deductible is nil. I really didn't have a plan on how to go about looking for a dental plan but I finally figured out what I needed.

I would prefer to have Delta Dental over Humana, because there would be more dentists available, but your insurance is too expensive. I have 11 choices through Tricare Dental and your insurance is $100 a month more than Humana. As a matter of fact, your coverage is the most expensive of all 11 options. You pay less than Humana in intermediate and major procedures and have a max benefit amount. As long as you charge more for less benefits, I will not choose Delta Dental.

Teeth are a lot like your car, routine maintenance can save a ton of money. Routine maintenance keeps you from maybe needing to get those high priced procedures done by keeping your teeth and gums healthy. Worth it to get the 6 month cleanings and check ups and even getting minimal dental insurance.

Sorry for bringing up an old thread, but I'm also in search of dental coverage info. It's crucial to consider various factors when choosing a dental plan, like coverage for routine check-ups and treatments, the network of dentists, and affordability. I recently came across a website at https://www.silverdaledentalcenter.com/ that provides helpful insights about dental services. They might have some useful tips on finding the right dental coverage. I'm new here, but if you need any more info or have questions, feel free to ask. Good luck with your dental coverage hunt!
