What you get

One place for the whole dental side of life.

Free is a preview, like the demo, with ads and no login. Paid sidecars save your cards and home dentist — you keep them current, or we do.

Find & book fast

Search the highest-rated offices near you. Many partner offices can see new patients the same day or the next.

$2 — you keep it current

Log in with Clerk. Update your insurance card and dentist information yourself whenever something changes.

$5 — sidecar does it

Photograph the dentist card, enter the name, confirm the address. Assistive features keep everything updated.

No fine-print games

How dental coverage actually works.

The honest version every good dentist will tell you. Knowing this up front is how you avoid surprises.

Preventive care

~100%

Cleanings, exams, routine X-rays. On many plans this is covered right away.

  • Typically two cleanings + exams a year
  • Frequently $0 out of pocket
  • Best first appointment to book

Basic care

~80%

Fillings and simple procedures. Often a short waiting period.

  • Usually covered after preventive
  • Check your plan's waiting period
  • We flag this for you

Major care

up to ~50%

Crowns, bridges, oral surgery. Almost no U.S. plan covers major care above ~50%.

  • Longer waiting periods are normal
  • Annual maximums apply
  • This is where planning matters most
The honest truth about major care: no dental plan in the United States covers major work at 100%, and very little is covered on day one. Talk to your home office about the treatment plan so they can sequence care correctly. Dental Sidecar helps you choose the best payment option so cost never stops you from getting care.
Simple, honest pricing

Preview for free. Sidecar from $2 a month.

Free never logs you in. $2 and $5 use Clerk. If you don't have insurance, skip the sidecar and book a call — we handle it at no charge.
