Okay so if you're actually not lying, then opt out of your insurance plan and buy a delta dental plan via their exchange or the website. It's quite literally half the cost and comes with free preventative services.

I kinda thought I'd stop hearing the constant bad-faith accusations when I left reddit. I suppose not.

Just went to the Delta site and checked my state. The ONLY plan in my state they have that covers non-trivial work is $60/mo with a maximum coverage of $1000. The 80% (I know Delta employees... no dentist I would use is in their network) coverage after copay is nice, but you're still paying $700+ out of pocket for a potential $1000 total coverage. And unless you think I'm lying about the "Uninsured discount", it means if my dentist gives me a $300 discount on work for being uninsured (they do), I still end up ahead.

So thank you for implying I'm lying and then giving me the directions to prove my point.
