No Dental Insurance? No Problem.
Simple, transparent dental care without the complexity of traditional insurance.
Our dental membership program gives individuals and families a simple way to budget for routine dental care while receiving savings on additional treatment. Plans start at $429/year, with 15% off most additional dental treatment.
What Is an In-Office Dental Membership?
An in-office membership is a yearly plan you purchase directly from your dental practice, not from an insurance carrier. In exchange for a membership fee, you receive a defined set of preventive benefits and a discount on additional treatment, all administered in-house.
There's no third-party claims process, no provider network to check, and no insurance card. Your relationship is directly with Villa Park Dental Care.
You have options.
Dental insurance can be valuable for many people. It just isn't the only way to pay for dental care. An in-office membership is another path, one built around directness and transparency. If you do have coverage, see the insurance plans we work with.

A dental membership plan is not dental insurance. It is an in-office savings program offered directly by Villa Park Dental Care. It does not provide coverage, reimbursement, or a benefits network, and nothing on this page is insurance advice.
Dental insurance can be valuable for many people, particularly when an employer covers part of the premium. This comparison is meant to help you decide which approach fits your situation, not to suggest one is universally better than the other. If you have coverage, see the dental insurance plans we work with.
