Here at our office in Orange, we have the solution for patients who don’t have dental insurance. Our in-office Gold Plan allows you to receive two cleanings per year along with substantial discounts on all dental procedures. All without having to pay a monthly premium to an insurance company!
The Gold Plan is not dental insurance. It is not a dental discount plan. It is better than insurance.
It is a membership plan giving you affordable access to our office without having to worry about deductibles, annual maximums, waiting periods, exclusions, and all the other gimmicks seen with traditional insurance plans. This Plan is available for both new and existing patients who do not have dental insurance.
Details of our Gold Plan
The membership fee is $329 per year for the first individual – and then $279 for each additional adult family members and $229 for each child under age 19. This includes:
- Two cleanings per year – FREE.
- Two check up exams at your cleaning visits – FREE.
- Any/all necessary x-rays – FREE.
- Fluoride Treatment on kids 16 and younger – FREE
- The ability to pick Dr. Nick Calcaterra’s brain at those visits – PRICELESS!
- 15% savings on nearly all needed dental treatment – white fillings, crowns, extractions, root canals, and many other procedures.
Do you want to know what is not included in our plan?
- Waiting periods, annual limits, deductibles, dental claim forms, denials, missing teeth clauses, alternate benefits, and all the other things that insurance companies do to try to get out of covering your dental needs.
- The dreaded question of “will my dental insurance cover this?”
- The dreaded phone call from the Finance Department saying “your dental insurance didn’t cover what they said they were going to pay and now you owe an extra $473.”
Why Do This?
Over the past several years, we’ve heard people say “I wanted to come to see you but I don’t have insurance anymore.” Those same individuals were also frustrated with all the limitations (waiting periods, annual maximums, etc.) with plans offered through various companies. This was creating a real barrier to receiving dental care.
So, we decided to develop a plan that would promote regular dental visits at affordable prices. Regular check-ups allow us to detect problems early – and allow you to avoid more costly procedures such as root canals and dental implants. And thus, the Gold Plan was born, and since the launch in Fenruary 2014 it has been a smashing success!
