Dentist is needed (Huntsville, Madison, Providence: insurance, house, live in)

[ueza]

Hi, I need a good dentist but unfortunately cannot find many reviews.
I live in Providence and would like someone not far from that area, maybe Madison.
I've read older suggestions on similar topics here, but my insurance is Aetna, and it's not accepted in most of the mentioned dentists.
Hope you could help me.

I use the Providence Family Dental in Providence above the Five Points Cleaners. It is convenient to my house they also have 7am appts on certain days. They used to have 6pm appts but I think they no longer offer those. Hope this helps!

It would be great, but unfortunately they're not covered by my insurance.
Thank you for help.

I use Sunny Smiles which is just south of the Huntsville Hospital parking garage. Not too convenient to Providence, I know, but they're on our Blue Cross list.

The insurance may become less of a criteria for you if you can find out what a real world dentist will get in payment. Most people are not covered and those who are, are usually shocked at how little it actually contributes.

Does Aetna have a network for their dentists? If so have you logged in to Aetna's web site to see if they provide a list of network dentists?

I have Humana and if I log in I can look at a list of dentists in its network.

We've used Porch & Yokley they are just down 72, not far from Providence. Not sure if they take Aetna or not though.

Definitely, Aetna has. I just know nothing about those dentists and found so less reviews on them. That's why I'm looking for some recommendations.

Thank you. Aetna doesn't work with them.
I do not know what I hope - maybe that here is someone who has Aetna too

Thank you a lot. I'm quite new to USA medical insurance system, so you help me to clarify something in my mind about that. My understanding was so simple - if covered then payed (somehow), if not covered - payed just by myself.
