It seems more and more, our patients are asking us about individual dental insurance and if we recommend one plan over another. After calculating their monthly premiums and then calculating the cost of their yearly cleanings and exams, we find the premiums are often more than the cost of the cleanings and exams, if they paid themselves. Well, what if I need a filling, or a crown, you ask? Good question.
We thought of a way that will help eliminate the financial burden of paying a monthly premium and, at the same time, add comfort in knowing that if something out of the ordinary does comes up, such as a filling or crown, there will be a savings for them.
This is not insurance. You pay an affordable individual annual membership fee, and in return, you receive discounted fees (see exclusions) for treatments performed in our office. It’s that easy!

A one-time annual fee replaces the burden of costly monthly payments.
Get the care you need, when you need it, without restrictions on how often you can receive treatment.
Your benefits start immediately—no delays before you can use the plan.
It is our member’s responsibility to schedule and keep their appointments.
Payment is due at the time of service;
However, we offer a 12-month interest-free payment plan through CareCredit. We’re happy to assist you with the application if you’re interested.
No other discounts apply.
The savings plan begins the day ofyour purchase and is good for 12 months from that date. One routine exam, per year, will be included in the membership fee; a $68 value. Also, because Dr. Farmer has his patient's best interest in mind, there may be times when he will refer some patients to a specialist, such as a root canal or a difficult extraction. If this is the case, the savings plan will not be valid at the other office; only treatment rendered at Thurston Oaks Dental will apply.
