Dentbenefits

Dentbenefits is a dental clinic that operates a membership-based plan, offering an alternative to traditional dental insurance. The brand is designed to provide accessible and affordable dental care, particularly for the over one million New Yorkers who may have limited or no dental insurance. The model is similar to a gym membership, where patients pay a flat monthly fee of $125 for a 12-month contract. This fee provides members with access to a comprehensive range of dental services. The services covered under the Dentbenefits plan are extensive and include both routine and major procedures. Members can receive unlimited access to general dentistry services such as cleanings, checkups, and X-rays. The plan also covers more significant procedures like fillings, root canals, dentures, porcelain crowns, and bridges. A key selling point of Dentbenefits is its transparency and simplicity, as it eliminates many of the complexities and frustrations associated with traditional insurance. There are no co-pays, deductibles, pre-existing condition limitations, waiting periods, or insurance forms to file. This allows patients to build a direct relationship with their dentist without a third party. The company has locations in Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens. The plan is an in-house financing option, meaning the payment plans are offered directly through the practice rather than a third-party lender. This approach provides a straightforward approval process, flexible payment options, and clear terms without hidden fees. The brand emphasizes that a member's smile is a crucial part of their overall well-being and seeks to make dental care a routine and affordable part of life.
