It has been awhile, but when I was a student at Texas Woman's University the dental school there had a clinic that offered exams and cleanings at a discounted rate. I think it was $7 at the time. I think it would definatly be worth looking them up. Good luck!

I have used Dr Taylor. He is way over by on the west side of Dallas, but it is worth the drive. He is very affordable, they offer payment plans, and he is a great dentist. He is a member of my church and his wife, who is the office assistant, so I know them well as people too. His office is actually called Affordable Dentistry, so just look them up on the web and you will find them. The office is also VERY clean and pretty new, which is a big thing to me. Check it out!

We lost our dental benefits as well. I am a member of a credit union and signed up for Dental Benefits Plus which for a credit union member is $11.95/month for a family (non credit union members are about $20/month). You get a network of dentists that discounted up to 50% (it's not insurance). For our family of 5, we have saved at least $400 a year just on cleaning and maintenace. Although most of the dentists are from bigger chains (Monarch for example), we luckily stumbled onto an excellent one named Cye Jekel at Preston and Forest. He takes the plan (for now anyway) as he had taken over from another dentist years ago who accepted the plan. There are a large network of dentists in the plan and you also get 10% on vision care as well as discounts on chiropractic. If you want more info, email me through this site and i will give you the phone numbers and more information. There are other discount plans like this out there but my dentist said they don't keep up with the increasing cost of business so he has dropped all of them but this one. It's well worth it. And if Jekel is not convenient, you can surely find others in the plan that are. you can even check out their website before you sign up. The offer discounts at peridontists and orthodontists as well (we saved $1100 on my daughter's ortho treatments with a top ortho). I have sent my entire family to the dentist on this plan.

There is a company called CareCredit that you can go online and apply for to make dental payments as well as proceedures such as lasic surgery. When you go on there web-site they list dentist that they deal with. You can get a year without interest as long as you pay the total within a year. You can also get credit where you don't pay within the year but you pay interest.

Depending on where you live, I just recently started going to All Smiles Dentistry in Allen. It was recommended to me by my daughter and her fiancee who love her. Dr. Mentesana is wonderful. She is the best Dentist that I have ever run across and I have dealt with many over the years. Very thorough, personable and definitely has a great way of doing business. Her staff is great. They have a plan that you can sign up for, its called Care Plan and its 12 month plan, interest free.

Contact Maggie at ###-###-#### and she will give you any information you may want to know. They are located right off Highway 75 at Bethany.

Hope this helps. Good Luck

I just started going to Dr. Stewart (Stewart Dental) in Rockwall next to Target. HE IS FANTASTIC! He does any age and my young kids love him. At the time, it was $120 for a first time exam, xrays and cleaning and I think it will be about $65 for 6-mo check-ups.

Arlington has the Allen Sax dental clinic for children without insurance. I think the school district has information or maybe Catholic Charities.

I have a great dentist in Mesquite- Dr. Hal J Board DDS. He's off 635 and Towne East. I didn't see where you're at so I'm not sure if that's close or not?
