Affordable Dental Payment Plan
$1 / Day Dentiq Smile Club
Having an affordable dental payment plan has always been a focus for us, and Dentiq’s unique Dental Smile Club Savings Plan will make dental care more affordable and provide access to high-quality dental care.
Let’s face it, cost is the major barrier to dental care in New Zealand. Because we are passionate about creating an affordable dental payment plan for all, our Dental Savings Plan (DSP) is structured where members pay a set annual fee. They basically become “members” of our practice. In return for the fee, they receive a specified number of cleanings, examinations, and x-rays, as well as discounts on expensive procedures.
The benefit for patients is that in-house DSPs are often less expensive than traditional dental insurance. Meanwhile, our practice attracts patients who otherwise might not receive treatment – retirees, self-employed, and uninsured people. Your earnings under a DSP are the same, or maybe even higher, than they are for procedures on in-network insured patients. Everyone comes out ahead because we’ve cut out the middleman.
