Plug in your state and zip code for a quote (for 98122, Plan A: ~$56/month & Plan B: ~$37/month).<br />

<br />
I was mistaken about one thing above—full benefits kick in after the first year.<br />
<br />
If you have a lot of stuff you've been putting off, the best thing to do is work out a full treatment plan with your dentist and pay out-of-pocket during the first year for lower-cost things that are urgent (like fillings and extractions), then time the higher-end stuff (crowns, bridges, dentures, etc.) to take maximum advantage of the the annual benefit limit.

      <![CDATA[I almost think it would be a good idea for all the liberal, progressive, pinko, pinheads to join the Republican party and infect it from within. The thing about Republicans is, once a tipping point has been achieved, all of them fall in line and march to the same cadence, no matter who it is. Mitt Romney is the perfect example.

      <![CDATA[Heynow, @1, the AARP is one of the major national organizations that regularly argues against many flavors of Republican idiocy, plus for your $15 annual membership you're eligible to purchase affordable dental insurance that actually pays a significant percentage of major procedures (after the first two years).<br />
<br />
You needn't be either retired or superannuated to partake. I haven't joined yet, but I'm considering it.
