“We’re excited to announce this addition to our diverse offering of discount dental plans,” said George Michaelides, President of DentalPlans.com. “By continuing to add both regional and national discount dental plans, we are expanding our reach and therefore getting closer to our overall goal of making dental care affordable for all Americans.”

OptumHealth Allies Program plan members also have access to discounted vision rates from more than 15,000 participating eye care professionals and retail vision chain locations.

With rising dental care costs, discount programs can help to alleviate the burden of dental care bills. According to a recent Harris Interactive/Health Day poll, 51 percent of uninsured and 30 percent of insured Americans skipped necessary dental care visits during the last year due to financial burdens.

In contrast, DentalPlans.com members enjoy quick, easy access to dental care savings with no health restrictions or paperwork hassles. Most plans activate within 3 business days, providing a turn-key solution for those in immediate need of dental care savings.
