An emergency exam with 2 X-rays is also included, along with 15% off included treatment and up to 20% off all other services.
How much does the membership cost?

When do benefits start? Is there a waiting period?
Benefits begin immediately from the day you join. There are no waiting periods, no deductibles, no annual maximums, and no claim denials. You can book your first visit as soon as you enroll.
Does the plan cover bigger treatments like implants or Invisalign?
