How to Maximize Dental Insurance the ToothReferral Way
"Begin with the End in Mind" What Do You Need?
So you need a cosmetic dentist?
Do you want a cosmetic dentist who can offer sedation? 💤
Or how about a cosmetic dentist who can deliver beautiful porcelain veneers AND BOTOX? 💉
There are numerous dentists with specific skill sets to meet YOUR needs. ToothReferral will help you find them.
What are dental skill sets and how do they boost your insurance benefits?
Dental Skill Sets are unique features and specialized procedures that can enhance the value of your insurance benefits—beyond basic cleanings and fillings.
All dentists have skills, but we're talking about unique attributes that set them apart.
Why Skill Sets Matter for Your Insurance:
1. Avoid Multiple Visits
Find a dentist who can do what you need and offer unique skills to enhance your dental experience.
2. Maximize Your Benefits
Your insurance covers a fixed amount of coverage yearly.
3. Get It Right the First Time
Find dentists and dental specialists with unique skill sets tailored to your needs.
Examples of Money-Saving Skill Sets:
Same-Day Crowns
Save on multiple visits
In Network Providers
Maximize your insurance benefits and save
Advanced Technology
Better diagnostics, fewer surprises
Multiple Procedures
Bundle services in one visit
Remember: Some insurances cover more or less. Your insurance pays the same whether you see a generalist or a specialist. Why not get the expert?

Built by a Dentist Who Gets It
ToothReferral wasn't created by tech companies or insurance giants.
It was built by a practicing dentist who saw patients struggle to find the right specialist for their needs.
Sending patients to "any in-network dentist" often meant multiple appointments, referrals, and frustrated patients. There had to be a better way.
The solution: Let dentists showcase what they actually do best, and let patients search by those real skills—not just insurance participation.

Create your profileWhy Your Current Dentist Search Fails You
You've been there before.
You need your wisdom teeth out, so you search your insurance website. You get 50 names. No idea.
Referral services?
They get paid by dentist for leads. Guess whose interests come first?
Or maybe you tried popular Booking sites.
Great for scheduling, but those top results? They paid to be there. Not necessarily the best match for your specific needs.
The problem with every other search:
They show you who's in-network, but not who's actually skilled at what you need.
Insurance directories?
List every in-network dentist, but treat them all the same - like every basketball player can shoot three-pointers equally well.
Built by dentists. Designed for patients. Finally, a search that makes sense.
While certain procedures may be covered by your insurance, not all procedures will be. Obtain a copy of your dental benefits plan to know what is included vs excluded.
