You know you should go to the dentist. But dental insurance—if you have it—covers surprisingly little. The typical dental plan has an annual maximum of $1k–$1.5k. That hasn't meaningfully changed since the 1970s. A single crown can cost $1k–$1.5k. Two fillings and a cleaning can exhaust your annual benefit before summer.

If you don't have dental insurance—74 million American adults don't—you're paying full price on a credit card. Either way, you have little visibility into what anything costs until you're sitting in the chair with your mouth open.

The result? A third of American adults skip dental care every year because of cost. Conditions that could have been treated with a $200 filling become $2k crowns or $4k root canals. Delayed care costs more—always.

How

DRODE Helps

DRODE doesn't replace dental insurance. It gives you a better way to manage the money you're already spending out-of-pocket—and a reason to stop putting off the dentist.

Fund your wallet monthly ($35–$100/mo) so the money is there when you need dental care

DRODE dentists publish their pricing so you can see costs before you book

Pay from your wallet with one tap—no credit card debt

Your dentist pays a 1.5% transaction fee instead of 2.5–3.5% on credit cards

Unspent funds stay in your wallet, earn rewards, and can be used for any DRODE provider

Use it for the whole family—your cleaning, your kid's fillings, your spouse's crown
