Researching dental insurance and dental discount plans on DentalInsuranceKids.com is not too complicated. First, step is to decide if you want a dental insurance plan or a dental discount plan.   

With a dental insurance discount plan you will get a certain percentage off your dental orthodontic care normally ranging around 20 to 25 percent. However with a dental discount plan you will have to use dentist/orthodontic specialist, that accept the discount plan you are reviewing.   

With a dental insurance plan such as a PPO, you normally can choose your own orthodontic dentist (referral may be necessary). With dental PPO insurance plans, you would have a co-pay for orthodontic services and there may be a separate deductible as well as waiting periods and maximum life time limitations. Make sure you read the terms and conditions carefully.
