Direct Reimbursement (DR) is a self-funded dental benefits plan that reimburses patients according to dollars spent on dental care, not type of treatment received. It allows the patient complete freedom to choose any dentist. Instead of paying monthly insurance premiums, even for employees who don’t use the dentist, employers pay a percentage of actual treatments received up to a cap amount set by the employer. Moreover, employers are removed from the potential responsibility of influencing treatment decisions due to plan selection or sponsorship. DR is the ADA’s preferred method of financing dental treatment.
A quality dental benefits plan can aid in the recruitment and retention of employees. Dental benefits are consistently cited as one of the most sought after employee benefits.

Years ago, a physician who suspected heart disease would probably not refer the patient to a gum specialist. The same went for diabetes, pregnancy, or just about any other medical condition. Times have changed. The past 5 to 10 years have seen ballooning interest in possible links between mouth health and body health.
“Physicians are taking a more holistic approach to their patients’ overall health,” says Sally Cram, DDS, PC, consumer advisor for the American Dental Association. And for good reason. In one recent study, people with serious gum disease were 40% more likely to have a chronic condition on top of it…

The ADA recommends that a dentist examine a child within six months of the eruption of the first tooth and no later than the first birthday.

LEXI, an unhappy woman of substance, sits impatiently on a bus stop bench. MICHAEL, a (great looking, well built, bald) homeless guy, sits down next to her with a big smile on his face.
_________________________________________________________________
LEXI: What are you smiling for?
MICHAEL: It’s what I do.
LEXI: I won’t ask.
MICHAEL: I sell smiles for a living.
LEXI: I’m not interested.
MICHAEL: Here, have a free one – on me. (He smiles at her.)
LEXI: No thank you.
MICHAEL: Sorry, can’t take it back. You’ll have to give it to someone else.
LEXI: What?
MICHAEL: The smile. You’ll have to give it away if you don’t want it. Or sell it if you like – apparently it hasn’t been used much.
LEXI: What do you mean by that?
MICHAEL: You don’t smile very often, do you?
LEXI: So what if I don’t?
MICHAEL: Shouldn’t waste your smile…there’s plenty of people who could use one.
LEXI: Well they can have mine.
MICHAEL: Your what?
LEXI: My smile.
MICHAEL: I don’t see one.
LEXI: I thought you just gave me one.
MICHAEL: I tried, but it didn’t stick. I think it bounced right off.
LEXI: Fine. What’s there to smile about anyway?
MICHAEL: Well–
LEXI: You don’t have to answer that.
MICHAEL: There’s lots of things to smile about. It’s a beautiful day outside; the buses are running on time–
LEXI: I don’t want to hear about it.
MICHAEL: –and look at that flower over there, now that would make anybody smile–
LEXI: Would you leave me alone!(a long moment of silence. Finally, she gives in.)
LEXI: So what’s the going rate on smiles these days?
MICHAEL: Pardon me?
LEXI: Your smiles…how much are they?
MICHAEL: Oh, they’re very expensive.
LEXI: So’s my taste.
MICHAEL: You probably couldn’t afford one.
LEXI: Try me.
MICHAEL: I’m warning…it’ll cost you.
LEXI: Yes, I know, HOW MUCH?
MICHAEL: One smile.
LEXI: One smile?
MICHAEL: That’s how much they cost.
LEXI: What?
MICHAEL: The price for a smile is exactly one smile. That’s the going rate. (She thinks about it)
LEXI: Alright. (smiles) I’ll take one.
MICHAEL: It was a pleasure doing business with you.(he leaves)(Daisy, a streetwalker, sits down next to her.)
DAISY: What’s with the smile?
LEXI: I sell smiles for a living.
This Story is to remind you to always smile and be cheerful! It makes people happy! Keep on smiling!
