I manage a dental practice in CT and I am always looking for dental plans for seniors/retirees. There are very few out there and many will have a waiting period before it will cover major things like crowns and bridges (possibly one year). Self pay plans are very expensive. Take a look at Delta Dental of PA/NY thru AARP or Delta Dental of WI. I have a few patients with those plans, but their premiums are high. You do not need to reside in those states to be on the plans. I have actually advised many patients that they may be better off NOT buying dental insurance and just financing thru their dentist if they can. Many dentist use an interest free program called CareCredit.
