A Discount Dental Program Designed for Individuals Without Dental Insurance.

WELCOME TO THE HO`ALA PROGRAM
Hawaii Family Dental Centers (HFDC) is proud to introduce Ho'ala, an alternative program for the dental care needs of Hawai'i's people. Ho'ala is not an insurance plan, but rather a membership program that enables you to receive complete dental care at discounted rates. Ho'ala was created especially for individuals without dental insurance. 

Convenience for You and Your Family.
HFDC was established in 1986, and since then has grown to ten (10) convenient Centers statewide. HFDC has every specialty under one roof. This means that you only have to visit one HFDC location to meet all your dental care needs.

What Can You Expect by Becoming a Member?
Quality is never compromised. Ho`ala is a program that values traditional patient-doctor relationships. You are free to choose your own dentist from a group of highly qualified licensed professionals.

No Stress or Worries About Going to the Dentist
Once you have chosen your Center and doctor, then the rest is up to us to provide the quality, clean, comfortable, and gentle care that you can expect.

MAKING DENTAL CARE SIMPLE. . . . .

Low Membership Fees
Because Ho`ala is not an insurance plan, there are no claim forms to complete or billing to be done. This means cost savings that we can pass on to you through low membership fees and low out-of-pocket costs.


Fixed Out-of-Pocket Costs
We offer fixed discounted rates on all dental procedures. All discounted rates are provided to you in advance so that you know how much you will be paying for the procedure you receive. This means fixed out-of-pocket costs for you and your family.

No Annual Dollar Maximum
Insurance plans have a $600, $1000, or $1200 annual maximum. Any major dental work such as dentures or crowns can easily exhaust the annual benefit limit. As a member of Ho`ala, you are not restricted to a maximum dollar amount.

No Restrictions
Most insurance plans have restrictions and conditions that apply mainly to large procedures. For example, if you break a crown by accident, insurance will not cover the replacement crown if the crown is less than five years old. In this situation, you would have to pay for the crown at full price. Under the Ho`ala Program, you are offered the same discounted price for your replacement crown every time.

No Exclusions
Crowns, bridges, orthodontics, and cosmetic procedures are a few of the services available to Ho`ala members.

No Waiting Periods
With the Ho`ala Program, there are no waiting periods. You are immediately eligible for any dental procedure.

Discounts on Orthodontics
Our comprehensive orthodontic work is offered at a 20% discount. An average savings of $1000-1500.

Discount on Teeth Whitening
We offer two teeth whitening programs, Nite White and BriteSmiles. Ho`ala members will receive a 10% discount on these services.
