Discount dental plans are alot like coupon books where you get a
percentage off when you shop at participating merchants. With a
dental plan, you don't actually get coupons, but you must go to a
dentist who has agreed to participate in the plan and offer services
at a discounted rate - $650 for a crown instead of the standard rate
of $750, for instance.

It's important to keep in mind that a discount dental plan is not the
same thing as an insurance policy. Because discount plans aren't
regulated by state insurance departments, they don't have to meet
strict insurance regulations. That doesn't mean they aren't
legitimate, but you should take precautions when buying a dental
discount plan, especially over the Internet, where you have to
provide a variety of confidential information. For more information
