We did it this year and I can't wait to go back to the other plan where cleanings are covered at 100% even if it's more expensive. Last year I looked at all our cleanings and did the math + a buffer and it seemed like it made sense. (I've also been on HSA plans for 10-12 years so I'm fine not being on a PPO plan)
I've had so much trouble with the dentist office screwing it up and overcharging me (my own fault for trusting the price they told me
). Also, it seems like each visit this year ended up being significantly more expensive than I anticipated based on last year's numbers.
Anyways, YMMV, etc but for me the multiple phone calls and hassle is just not worth it.
