Fee Schedules A fee schedule is a list of dental procedures and the discounted price when using the dental plan. Fee schedules often vary greatly from one area to the next, and sometimes they're just estimates instead of set prices.

Ours are different Our fee schedules only vary from state to state. And they're not just estimates based on what we think the dentist will charge. Each fee schedule shows the actual prices our network providers in that state must charge.

Side-by-Side Comparison The sample procedure list below shows prices for a given state. The table shows the typical fee, competitor's fee (or estimate) and the Careington fee. The last column shows how much more you save with Careington over our competitor.
