Frequently Asked Questions
What is a dental membership plan?
Similar to other subscription services such as Netflix or Amazon Prime, a Kleer dental membership plan allows patients to pay a monthly or annual fee directly to their dentist and in return receive preventative care and discounts off of other treatment. Based on data from our practices, Kleer membership plan patients visit 2-3x more often than uninsured patients and accept 2x the treatment.
What is the difference between a dental membership plan and dental insurance?
A dental membership plan is a direct agreement between a patient and their dentist, with no insurance middleman in the way. Unlike traditional dental insurance, dentists design the treatment plan, set the subscription price, and control the fee schedule. There are no deductibles, waiting periods, annual maximums, denials of claims, or pre-approvals. A dental membership plan puts dentists in control, lowering cost and administration burden. As a result, dentists can pass savings to their patients.

How much does a dental membership plan cost?
Dental membership plans are designed by dentists based on local patient demographics, treatment preferences, and economics, so costs can vary. On average, patients on the Kleer platform pay $30 a month or $360 a year for preventative care including cleanings, exams, x-rays, fluoride treatments, and an emergency visit. They also save 10-25% off of other procedures and receive a 5-10% discount for adding additional family members to their plan.
