Is that the same thing as Delta Dental?

I would go with Dr. Higuchi. My family used to go to Comfort Dental, but had many bad experiences and things that should have been caught but weren't (i.e. a cavity that is visible). Aspen Park Dental does seem to be a little more expensive, but they are more professional and attentive.

I also looked into Tricare, but they were VERY expensive when compared to other policies.

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

for me, it would be $44/month. I want to go and get a general once over and see if I need work done and an estimate. Then I would do the math and see what is best cost/money. Paying cash now or paying premiums for a year before I could get any work done through dental insurance and then calculate the % paid and caps. I have a feeling that paying cash now may prove to be better. I'll report in. and yes Tricare for retirees and family is Delta Dental. Thanks for the feedback on Comfort Dental - that is exactly the type of experiences I want to know about and any good ones, too

We have Delta and use Dr. Lahr at West Branch Dental. It is near Tiny Town. We are very satisfied with him after trying three other dentists in the area that look at every mouth as a potential gold mine.

Best dentist up here.
Comfort Dental is a nightmare. Pulled the wrong tooth and then went on to almost have to sue them at the Alameda office in Lakewood.
I will never darken the door of ANY Comfort Dental ever again.

I searched long and hard for a great dentist after that horrible experience and found Dr Guy Grabiak. OUTSTANDING dentist but he is down the hill on Wads and Hamden

don't even THINK about Comfort Dental.

My dentist is Tamara Herreman - they were on Wads and Jewell, but I think since my last visit have moved to Kipling and Mississippi - don't know if that move happened yet. But she and her staff are great!
