Dependents are eligible between 4-26 years of age (regardless of whether the dependent is attending school, living outside the parent’s home, or married.) Membership may be continued for a dependent over the age of 26, if the dependent is incapable of self-sustaining employment by reason of developmental or physical handicap.

DISCOUNT FEES

A Plan fee schedule can be obtained online at gentledentalsmileplan.com, through a participating provider, or by calling member services at (800)-755-8622. Fees are discounted as listed in the current fee schedule. Fees not listed in the fee schedule will be discounted 20%. Specialty fees will be discounted by 25%. Specialty services are available at any participating specialty dental provider.

The Plan reserves the right to update the Plan fee schedule at any time. Savings are based upon the provider’s normal fees. Actual savings will vary depending upon location and specific services or products purchased. Please verify such services with each individual provider. All listed or quoted prices are current prices by participating providers and subject to change without notice. Updated fees at the time of service will apply to all dental services received by you and your family members.

All provider fees are due at time or service or according to terms between member and provider. No portion of any provider fees will be reimbursed or otherwise paid by the Plan.

Unless you opt-out or cancel, your subscription or service will automatically renew at the end of each term for the same duration and at the then-current rate. At the end of your membership term, you authorize the Plan and provide your affirmative consent to charge your credit card or checking account for the plan you have selected, and your credit card or checking account will be automatically charged for the appropriate amount, unless or until you notify us that you wish to cancel the Plan.
