a discount plan called CAREINGTON....it costs $6.95 a month for one person....you save 20 to 60% on dental care.

Here is the link if you want to check it out:

You chose a dentist who belongs to the plan, and your charges are reduced accordingly. For example we paid $460 for a crown which was normally $895, a considerable savings when you have no coverage.

I hope this is of help.
