Dental care can quietly drain a family’s budget, especially when insurance falls short or isn’t an option. Nearly 42% of adults lack dental benefits, making routine checkups and treatments feel financially out of reach. For Illinois families navigating the gap between insurance and dental care costs, a discount membership plan can make all the difference.
At Sonrisa Family Dental, we believe that every family in Chicago and the surrounding communities deserves access to quality dental care, regardless of their insurance situation. Founded by Jason Korkus, DDS, our practice serves patients of all ages, accepts most major insurance plans, and offers flexible options for those who need an affordable path to consistent dental care. Our Open Dental Discount Membership is one of the most practical tools we offer to help families save money while staying on top of their oral health.
What Is the Open Dental Discount Membership?
The Open Dental Discount Membership is an in-house dental plan designed specifically for patients who either lack dental insurance or find that their current coverage does not go far enough. It is a straightforward, transparent solution with no hidden fees, deductibles, or waiting periods. You enroll, and your discounted rates apply right away.
The membership is built around the dental care that families use most. It covers your twice-yearly preventive services and extends discounted pricing across a wide range of treatments. Whether you have a single household member who needs coverage or you are looking for a plan that works for your entire family, the Open Dental Discount Membership can be customized to fit your needs and your budget.
What Does the Open Dental Discount Membership Include?
The plan covers essential services that keep your family’s oral health on track throughout the year. Here is what members typically benefit from:
- Twice-yearly cleanings
- Periodic exams
- X-rays
- Discounted treatment pricing
There are no surprise charges at checkout, and no claim forms to submit. The process is simple and designed with busy families in mind.
Is the Open Dental Discount Membership Right for Uninsured Patients?
The short answer is yes. If you are currently uninsured or underinsured, this plan was created with you in mind. Many families in Chicago rely on it as a reliable alternative to traditional insurance, particularly when employer coverage is unavailable or individual premiums are simply too high. You pay a predictable membership fee and, in return, gain access to consistent, affordable care at our locations throughout the city.
We also accept Medicaid for orthodontic treatment and oral surgery in Illinois, and we work with Medicare, County Care, Meridian Illinois Medicaid, and Blue Cross Blue Shield, among many others. For patients who qualify for government coverage, our team helps coordinate benefits so you get the most out of what is available to you. If you are curious about what your Medicaid benefits cover, our staff can walk you through your options at any visit.
How Much Can Families Save With This Membership?
Savings vary depending on the treatments your family needs, but the membership is built to deliver real value across the board. Preventive care alone, when paid out of pocket, can cost hundreds of dollars per person each year. With the Open Dental Discount Membership, those costs are reduced significantly.
Families who use their twice-yearly visits consistently and take advantage of member pricing on restorative work typically see meaningful savings compared to paying standard rates without coverage. If you are also exploring other ways to manage dental costs, we encourage you to check out our current specials and offers for additional savings opportunities.
