Dental insurance can be very costly. With most insurance plans, there are annual maximums, deductibles, and waiting periods for certain treatments. There can also be clauses that do not cover missing teeth, no coverage for Cosmetic Dentistry and various forms to fill out for claim submission. In addition, you may still have to pay a portion of the dentist’s charges.
SDP has:
Our goal is to make certain everyone has the opportunity to have the affordable dental treatments they need and want. SDP can accommodate individuals, couples, and families, as well as employers with small or large groups.
Choose the plan that is appropriate for you: Individual, Me + Spouse, Me + Child, or Family. The Me + Spouse plan allows two people in the same household (i.e. domestic partners or roommates) to participate. The family plan includes member, spouse and all dependent children under 18 years of age. Group plans are also available for unions or businesses with four or more employees.
