<\/span><\/p>\n

These days, dental care is a necessity if you\u2019d like to keep your teeth and gums in tip-top shape and reduce the risk of cavities, gum disease, tooth loss, and other issues. While trips to the dentist don\u2019t come cheap, dental financing<\/a> can make them more affordable, even if you already have dental insurance.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re in the market for a dental loan for exams and cleanings, clear aligners, crowns, veneers, and other services, it\u2019s important to shop around and compare your options. You\u2019ll quickly notice that dental financing varies greatly by lender. As you research dental financing, focus on the following factors.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0 Eligibility criteria<\/h2>\n

When it comes to dental financing, some lenders are more lenient than others. Many of them, however, will look at your credit score, income, and debt-to-income ratio. In general, a higher credit score, greater income, and lower debt-to-income ratio may help you be approved and qualify for the most favorable rates. Note that some lenders accept co-signers who may help you qualify if you\u2019re working on building your credit score.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0 Borrowing amounts<\/h2>\n

Depending on what services you want to finance, you may only need to borrow a few hundred dollars. If you\u2019re looking to take out a much larger loan to cover veneers, Invisalign, or other costly services, you might need to borrow a few thousand. Many lenders offer loans between $1,000 and $50,000, but some may lend up to $100,000 to the right borrower. Before you apply, confirm the lender can issue a loan for the amount you need.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0 APR<\/h2>\n

Annual percentage rate (APR) refers to how much you\u2019ll pay in interest and fees to take out a dental loan. Ideally, you\u2019d choose a lender that offers a competitive APR. Before you sign on the dotted line and commit to dental financing, do the math and calculate your overall cost of borrowing.<\/p>\n

4.\u00a0\u00a0 Fees<\/h2>\n

Some dental loans may have fees in addition to interest, which may include origination fees, application fees, late fees, and annual fees. Since fees can add up quickly, ensure you know all the fees a lender charges, including those you might incur if you decide to repay the loan early.<\/p>\n

5.\u00a0\u00a0 Funding time<\/h2>\n

If you have an emergency dental need, funding time is particularly important. You\u2019ll find that some lenders disburse funds the same day you apply or the next business day, while others take a few business days or even longer. In a pinch, you might have to choose a particular lender simply because they can get you the money you need more quickly.<\/p>\n

6.\u00a0\u00a0 Lender reputation<\/h2>\n

Reputation is important as you explore dental financing. It\u2019s wise to check ratings and reviews on reputable websites. This way, you can get a feel for how current and former borrowers perceive the company. If you read many negative reviews, it\u2019s likely in your best interest to continue your search.<\/p>\n

Achieve a healthy smile with dental financing<\/h2>\n

Even if you don\u2019t have the cash to cover dental services upfront, you can protect your teeth, mouth, and gums with a dental loan. By shopping around and considering the factors mentioned above, you can zero in on the ideal product that meets your dental and financial needs.<\/p>\n
