Any dental insurance out there that’s any good? We are in our late 50’s, looking at a few implants now, etc. And of course whatever else occurs later.

I’m looking for recommendations on dental insurance plans that provide comprehensive coverage for dental implants, particularly for individuals in their late 50s.

At this age, dental needs can change, and implants might be a necessary treatment. I’m seeking options that offer good coverage for implant procedures, including consultations, surgeries, and post-treatment care.

It would be great if the plan is affordable yet covers a significant portion of the treatment costs, as dental implants can be quite expensive.

Any suggestions based on personal experiences or knowledge of well-rated insurance providers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Dental insurance is scam, and usually makes no sense if you don’t have an employer paying half or all.

Better to find a dentist who offers an in office discount plan.

Also find a dentist who can place the implants for you, once you need to see a specialist costs can double.

Dental provider here, I’d advise against buying dental insurance, the math just doesn’t add up, monthly premiums and low coverage, annual max.

Will not cover implants. You’re better off saving that money!!

The max annual benefit from most dental plans would pay for about half of one implant. You could travel to another country, but implants would mean several trips.

My husband just got one implant done and it cost $4k over about 3.5 months.

Individual plans don’t cover much. They usually cover part of the crown part but not much of the implant itself. The discount from the insurance is the one good thing.

One of the issues of having it done out of the country is after placed the dentists can “fix” them if something goes wrong. Different parts are used here.

So, a lot of dentists won’t really touch them.

For an implant not to fail it takes months for it to integrate into the bone and you really need to wait at least 4 months to uncover and place the top part.
