Tip of the Week

Identity theft! Credit card fraud! Viruses!Oh, my!

Many of us are nervous about purchasing even small commodities, like books, online because of the fear of having our identities or credit card numbers stolen and used by someone for nefarious purposes.

Therefore, buying a dental plan online seems like a really big risk that's not worth taking, especially with local insurance salesmen around with whom you can talk more safely over the phone.

Even if you are nervous about giving your credit card number or social security number out online, you can still benefit from looking at a dental plan via the Internet. There are many sites that offer free quotes and resources, along with insightful comparisons of dental plan types, that you can utilize without having to give out any of this vital information. Moreover, if you do find a plan that you really like online, any reputable provider will have a toll free phone number that you can use to talk to an actual person, allowing you to never have to enter a single personal detail over the Internet.

Regardless of whether or not you intend to enroll in your dental plan online, you can still benefit from the wealth of information and free quotes offered by the many specialized, free websites available.
