The Fine Print (please read)

Eligibility

Anyone not covered by dental insurance may enroll in MIDENT. You may also enroll your eligible dependents, which includes your lawful spouse and children. No pre-existing conditions will prevent membership.

The Details

  • Membership is in effect for one year only, beginning the day the membership fee is received. Procedures specifically in progress at the time the membership expires will be completed at the allowance rate. Further allowances on services will not be allowed until the renewed membership fee is received.

  • This is a basic service plan. Some dental treatments may require treatment by a specialist. The need for referral to or treatment by a specialist is at the sole discretion of Dr. Eliason. Should members require treatment or services better treated by and referred to specialists, the MIDENT plan will not extend to or cover these treatments and the allowance will not be in effect.

  • Preventive visits which include initial and recall oral exams, routine diagnostic x-rays, routine cleaning and fluoride treatments are limited to two per year under the plan

  • Payment of discounted procedures must be made at time of service.

  • Any participant (including a dependent) who fails to keep an appointment shall be subject to a charge unless cancelled at least 24 hours prior to the scheduled appointment and such charge shall be no more than $20.00

  • This plan is expressly non-transferable

  • Sierra Dental/MIDENT reserve the right to refuse membership to individuals at its discretion

  • Any dental services for which the participant is reimbursed, entitled to reimbursement, or is in any way indemnified for such expense by or through any program, state or federal, or any program of medical or dental benefits sponsored and paid for by the federal government or any agency thereof.
