What is your opinion on discount plans for dentures?

[Katterine]

I found one http://denture4less.com They say you could save 25%-60% on dentures. Is there a catch?


This discussion is related to Cost of dentures.

i just checked out the site. its for dental insurance plans. i misunderstood. the biggest problem i have found with these are many dentists dont accept it. again check the fine print and make sure you know all the restrictions. each plan has its own "catches" so read the information carefully.  i checked into these plans and the only dentist that took it were foreign and involved in the aspen plan (see above post).

read the fine print and check for complaints with the better business bureau and the ama. i would also check to see what the savings are compared to your local dentists for a similar product. sometimes the savings are not as much as they claim. my friend went to aspen which advertises inexpensive dentures and after 3 months and $1800 she still is waiting. the top plate started to fall apart and the bottom is still "at the lab". many times you get what you pay for.
