How to Pay to Fix Bad Teeth

By Frank Denber

New advances in cosmetic dentistry have provided affordable solutions to most bad teeth problems. But even affordable solutions can break the household budget. Fortunately, as cosmetic dentistry has advanced, so have the ways to pay for it.

For those individuals who currently have dental insurance, it is important to check to be sure which if any of the cosmetic dental procedures are covered and to what degree. For those who do not have dental insurance, obtaining it well in advance of the procedure could result in a considerable savings.

One place to shop and compare dental insurance is DentalPlans.com. Once at the website, the person plugs in their zip code, and all the dental insurance plans available in their area will be listed along with comparisons in prices and coverage. If the individual prefers to work with a particular dentist, this website will also tell them what insurance plans the dentist accepts.

While dental insurance is one way to pay for some of the dental expenses, more help is available through financial institutions that specialize in dental and medical loans. Citibank, Unicorn, CareCredit, CapitolOne Credit, and EZPay Solutions offer some of the most affordable loans. Many of these loans are low interest or interest free.

Finally, many dental professionals offer in-house financing. Wise individuals will check first to see if their dental professional offers these services. If their dental professional does not offer in-house financing then perhaps another dental professional in the area does offer in-house financing and can do the work.

A beautiful smile and a healthy mouth are no longer the exclusive territory of the rich and famous. Affordable procedures and reasonable financing are within nearly everyone's reach.
