Save On Dental Care All School Year Long

(NAPSI)- Proper oral health is essential to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. That’s why many parents want their children to get a good grade when it comes to school-year dental care.

Despite being preventable, tooth decay is the single most common chronic childhood disease and is five times more common than asthma and seven times more common than hay fever, according to Oral Health in America: A Report of the Surgeon General. Additionally, more than 51 million hours of school are lost each year due to oral health problems and dental-related illness.

Since many oral health problems such as tooth decay are easier to prevent than to treat, many parents guide their children to a lifetime of good oral health by signing up for discount dental plans. These money-saving plans are an alternative to dental insurance and emphasize routine and preventive dental care.

For example, DentalPlans.com helps parents save money on their children’s dental care throughout the school year by offering 30+ discount dental plans with savings of 10 percent to 60 percent on most dental procedures, including checkups, cleanings, fillings, X-rays and more. Select plans offer additional savings on braces (orthodontics), cosmetic dentistry and more. Plus, there are no annual limits, health restrictions or paperwork hassles.

By visiting the site and entering their zip code, parents can compare savings offered by various discount dental plans available in their area. In addition, the site is providing 10 percent off any discount dental plan during the ‘08-‘09 school year. Parents simply enter coupon code SCHOOL10 to receive 10 percent off the plan price. And with a family discount dental plan, you can save on your family’s dental care all year long.

In addition, new members receive three additional months free on their discount dental plan membership. That’s 15 months of dental care savings for the price of 12 months!

For more information, visit www.DentalPlans.com or call toll-free (888) 262-9225.
