No, members cannot use two plans in the same office at the same time. Two discount dental plans cannot be coordinated. Consumers are able to purchase more than one discount plan from GetDentalRates.com to use at separate offices. For Example: If your orthodontist is participating in the Protective Discount Dental Plan and your general dentist is participating in the Uni-Care 200 Discount Dental Plan, the consumer can purchase both plans to use at the respective office.
