Hawaii Dental Insurance Plans and Coverage –
Prioritizing Quality Care
At Total Health Dentistry Hawaii, we focus on providing “private care dentistry for the quality-conscious.” This means that your dental care decisions should be between you and us, without interference from insurance companies. We are committed to recommending only the highest quality treatments—what we would choose for ourselves. Unfortunately, dental insurance companies operate differently, often prioritizing profit over patient care.
Why We Don’t Contract with Insurance Companies
- Insurance Prioritizes Profit Over Care: Insurance companies aim to pay out as little as possible. Their focus is on maximizing their profits, not your dental health.
- Low-Quality Coverage: Often, insurance only covers the least expensive treatments, disregarding what’s best for your long-term dental health.
- “Usual and Customary” Fees: Insurance may claim our fees are higher than the norm, but the truth is their benefits are lower than they should be. The less they pay, the more they profit.
- Discouraging Quality Care: Insurance companies may encourage you to find the cheapest care, sacrificing quality. At Total Health Dentistry, we believe you deserve better.
- PPO Limitations: If you have a PPO plan, it may pay less towards our treatments, even though you pay the same premium. This practice forces patients toward cheaper, lower-quality care. We refuse to compromise on quality.
Dental Insurance vs. True Health Insurance
Dental insurance is unlike traditional insurance (e.g., health or auto) that covers large, catastrophic expenses. Dental plans often limit coverage, especially for larger treatments, with outdated limits and exclusions. Many plans still follow outdated practices from the 1970s, ignoring advancements in modern dentistry that allow us to offer better, longer-lasting care.
At Total Health Dentistry Hawaii, we treat you with the latest advanced techniques, biocompatible materials, and holistic dentistry procedures because we believe in delivering the best care, not what’s cheapest or quickest.
Regain Control Over Your Dental Health
Our practice is among the few that provide true private care. You have the freedom to choose your treatments based on your needs and values, without insurance dictating your options. Many other practices focus on “patch-up” treatments that solve immediate problems. We emphasize prevention, long-term dental health, and patient responsibility.
When you choose Total Health Dentistry, you invest in superior dental care that will benefit your health for years to come.
At Total Health Dentistry Hawaii, we’re more than a dental practice—we’re your partners in achieving lasting health and wellness. Contact us today to experience holistic, compassionate care tailored to yo
