Effective April 24 of this year, the Ameriplan® fee schedule for the state of Louisiana has changed to the lime green code region for the entire state. When anyone from this state pulls up their fee schedule, it will refer to Ameriplan®’s lime green code for the prices and savings. It’s a minor change, but it will effect which brochures are used in that state.

In an article April 22, the USA Today published an article describing an old technology that that is gaining usage in the dentist office - lasers. Yes, lasers. These cutting devices using light power can make very accurate incisions and cuts for minor surgeries and fillings. The techniques of using lasers has been around for quite some time, but have never gained in popularity because it is not what is taught in schools, and it’s expensive.

But it seems, once they are used, the benefits are nice. If you can find a dentist that uses lasers you lucky. Lasers can eliminate the need for an anesthesia when drilling would be minor. The article talks about how 1 out of 10 patients can still feel the drill even after being numbed. If you have AmeriPlan® chances are you can find a dentist in our network using lasers for drilling or minor oral surgery. AmeriPlan® has over 30,000 dentists in our national network of providers.

During the recent presidential debates, especially on the democratic side, there is a lot of discussion about how to handle the ever increasing health care costs in the US. Both Democrats favor a bill that would force all people to purchase health insurance. This has disaster written all over it.

We at OurMedicalProgram.com, an Ameriplan® website are against such plans for several reasons. First, the plans won’t work. Forcing everyone to purchase health insurance will do two things, increase the price of insurance, and increase the demand and therefore, the cost of health care. This will result in an ever increasing spiral of increasing costs. This happens each time the Government tries to intervene in a free market.

We believe Ameriplan® has the answer. Consumer driven health care will force the industry to create lower prices and lower their costs. We believe there is an answer to this problem and it’s Ameriplan®!

The idea of a tiny intra oral camera that can take 3D pictures of teeth has been around for several years. However, it now appears many companies are prepared to launch this type of product. 3D intra oral cameras have the potential to make your visit to your dentist a much more pleasant one because it would eliminate the need for molding putty used today. That material can gag the patient as orthodontist take impressions of teath in preparation for braces, or dentist take impressions for crowns.

Intra oral cameras would produce a 3D image that could be instantly sent to a CAD/CAM system to fabricate a perfect match for a crown for example. This is an exciting development. Several companies showing technology at this year’s CES show in Las Vegas makes this all the more real.
