No. Dental Access is a dental savings plan that uses the Aetna Dental Access network. Members get unlimited access to discounted prices at in-network dentists across the country.

Each dentist contracts with the Aetna Dental Access network individually, so prices will vary between providers. While we can give estimates for certain procedures and a general savings range of 15-50% per visit across all procedures, we recommend checking with your dentist for exact treatment pricing at their location. Because the plan is so affordable, most members easily save more than the cost of membership, whether they just get their regular 6-month cleanings or need major work during the year.

Specialists (endodontists, orthodontists, oral surgeons, prosthodontists, pediatric dentists, etc.) have received advanced training in their area of expertise. Although 15% is the minimum, there may be times when your savings range is 15-50% per visit at specialists.

You will save 15-50% per visit at a participating orthodontist. Since the Dental Access plan is not insurance, there are no waiting periods or limits on your savings. We recommend checking with your orthodontist for exact pricing with the plan. Please note that these savings do not apply if work on the braces has already begun.

Invisalign is relatively new, and while some orthodontists classify it as traditional braces, others consider it a product they sell. If your orthodontist classifies it as traditional braces with a designated ADA code, you can save on it with the Dental Access plan. Please note that while Invisalign is sometimes discounted, you will not receive savings on Smile Direct Club, Candid, or other do-it-yourself clear aligners because they are not directly administered by a dental professional.

At a general dentist or oral surgeon in the Aetna Dental Access network, members can save 15%-50% per visit. Exact savings depend on the type of extraction involved and whether your general dentist or your oral surgeon is doing the work (oral surgeons are typically more expensive and perform more complicated extractions).

Absolutely! In fact, dental savings plans are an excellent way to save money on implants and other work that is traditionally labeled "cosmetic." You save 15%-50% per visit at an in-network provider no matter how many implants you get, with no waiting or limits of any kind.

Dentists who are not in the network have not agreed to the discounted prices. To make sure you're receiving the savings you've signed up for, please visit one of the 226,000+ dental locations in the Aetna Dental Access Network. You can find one near you by using our dentist search engine.

We do our best to keep an up-to-date list of dentists on our website, but we always recommend double checking when you call to make your appointment. If you discover an error, please let us know by emailing customercare@1dental.com or calling us at 855-329-6305.

Pro tip: When speaking to the dentist, be sure to refer to the plan as the Dental Access Plan powered by the Aetna Dental Access Network, not "the 1Dental plan." Specify that it is a discount plan, not insurance. If there's any confusion, remember we are here to help!
