I don't want to turn this to a political discussion but that is definitely one upside of the Obamacare health plan - a public option for everybody else. Agree completely with commenter above.

Most people looking for individual coverage know that they want to receive services. That is a lot like looking for car insurance to cover an accident you had yesterday. The only way to get decent coverage is through a group policy from an employer. Someone has to pay the bills and if it is not the patient then it is the employer premiums. You may find that "self insurance" for dentistry is a more cost effective option, and remember that preventative dentistry is the least expensive option.
