How does DenScore determine who the best dentists are?
DenScore rates clinics based on their clinical qualifications, patient satisfaction, scheduling flexibility, and other criteria. If clinics request to be included in our Best Dentist list, they are thoroughly vetted and must meet our strict quality control standards to be listed.
Will dental insurance help me save money on dental care?
Dental treatment can be very affordable when people find the best dental insurance plan for their needs. Families that qualify for low-cost medical care can get Medicaid dental coverage, which provides free dental care to children. However, most states cover only a limited number of dental procedures for adults. For elderly patients, regular Medicare doesn’t cover dental care, but many Medicare Advantage plans offer excellent dental coverage, enabling seniors to save a lot of money on expensive dental procedures. If you are a Veteran or are part of a tribal community, you may be eligible for free dental care at a Veterans Affairs Clinic or a tribal dental clinic. Federally Qualified Health Centers and dental schools may also offer sliding scale schedules based on income. We recommend you call a few clinics to see what their requirements are for providing treatment discounts or free dental care.
How do I know if I’m getting the right dental treatment?
Whether you have a tooth that needs to be fixed, a gum problem, or concerns about your smile, there are likely multiple ways to treat your condition. DenScore’s free online dental tool will provide you with information so you can ask your dentist the right questions and get the high-quality dental care you deserve.
