I signed up after being assured that my dentist was on the list of approverd doctors. I paid the $99 enrollment fee along with the additional $20 processing fee. Luckily I made a quick appointment and found yhat my dentist not only had never heard of the plan they did not allow for any discounted billing practices ever! So I at least was able to cancel the plan within the 30 day cancellation policy otherwise I would have lost the whole $119! This seems to me like false advertising and a way for this company to make $20. Quite a disappointment. The customer service was curtious though.

This is NOT dental insurance. It is an arrangement for "discounted" services from a variety of dental companies. I was referred to Great Expressions in Cross Creek, Tampa. They then referred me to a colleague who was a periodontist in Wesley Chapel. I have had periodontal disease for the past 24 years and been treated by regular cleanings every three months and deep cleanings once every two to three years. The discounted cost of basic Xrays and cursory evaluation by the regular dentist was sixty two dollars. The periodontist charged me $ 312.00 for evaluation and 890.00 for a deep cleaning. My last periodontist charged me $600 .00. It was the worst cleaning I have had in 24 years. Then after a month of pain I returned for my re-evaluation. Another $82.50! My wife's dentist charges 60.00 for a regular cleaning. I will take my Acetaminophen 500 mg. twice a day Rather than return to these (what I consider to be) dishonest people. There were no savings. I ended up paying about $1300.00 for continuing discomfort. Plus of course the membership in Careington! Oh I paid $20.00 for a small bottle of mouthwash and I filled a prescription at the Walmart pharmacy for twice the volume for $4.00. So much for Savings. Never again!

At first this seemed amazing, I found myself telling friends and family about this plan and how they need to try it. When I went to visit the dentist, one I had chose from the list that they have provided I was quoted different prices. The sales rep assured me that the prices he quoted are set. I found this information to be very misleading. This plan is only good for individuals who do not need a lot of work done, and would be more beneficial to those who need it for a check up here and there. Also, I asked for a full refund and they only refunded me $75 and probably will not refund the rest. I'm going with blue cross it's only 11 dollars a month and you get free cleanings and x-rays!!!

Here is my recommendation to everybody based on my personal experience.
The discounts mentioned in their website apply only for the GENERAL DENTIST. If you go to any specialist like Oral Surgeon, Orthodontist, Prosthodontists etc, they will give you only 20% discount. And there is a disclaimer in their website which says that you get 20% discounts with specialist. In their website, they have mentioned they you get 50%-70% discounts for Oral Surgeries, tooth extractions etc, that applies only when these services are performed by a General Dentist:). So, be careful..
