Traditional Dental Insurance is like Driving a Broken Car: Dental Difference is the Solution.
Key Takeaways A Quick Summary
Key Takeaways
- Traditional dental insurance is inefficient: US employers spend $65 Billion in dental premiums and lose about $25 Billion (≈40%) of those dollars that never go to employee care.
- Dental insurance is a payment vehicle, not the dental benefit itself; the actual benefit is the dental care (cleanings, exams, fillings) received by individuals.
- Dental Difference offers a new model that lets employers/employees 'keep their gas'—pay only for services needed, recycle or roll over unused funds, and avoid the waste of traditional insurance.
- Employers and brokers can save roughly 30%–40% while improving benefits, making Dental Difference a competitive selling point to win and close new business.
- Dental Difference allows benefit dollars to be used at any dental office and provides savings comparable to insurance networks; prospective clients are invited to request a proposal or 'test drive.'
Question: Would you keep driving your car if you lost 40% of the gas each time you filled up your tank?
Answer: Of course you wouldn’t! You’d fix the problem or get a new car!
Typical Dental Insurance is Broken
Dental Insurance is just like this hypothetical vehicle you’re driving in the above scenario.
US employers are spending $65 Billion in dental premiums and each year they are losing $25 Billion, around 40% of those premium dollars. Those dollars never go to provide any care for employees. Selling dental insurance is like selling a broken vehicle.
Dental Insurance is not a dental benefit. Dental care - cleaning, exams, fillings- that is a dental benefit. It’s benefiting the individual receiving the care. Dental insurance is only a payment vehicle used to pay for the dental benefit and just like the hypothetical vehicle above, it’s broken.
