Healthy savings: attractive smiles

New practice in Indian Land will have YEC members beaming, too.

Car­oli­na Smile Den­tistry LLC – the name has a spe­cial mean­ing to Dr. Anjali Seth, DDS.

A native Indo-Cana­di­an, she notes, “We love the word ‘smile.’ ” In fact, Dr. Seth says, every­one’s favorite facial expres­sion influ­enced the name she chose for her first daugh­ter. “That’s what Muskaan’s name means in my lan­guage, Hin­di.”

Their sec­ond daugh­ter’s name, Kashish, means “attrac­tion,” she adds. Appro­pri­ate­ly, their moth­er is all about help­ing patients sport attrac­tive smiles at her new prac­tice in Indi­an Land.

The girls played a role in their moth­er’s deci­sion to open her own prac­tice, says Dr. Seth, a den­tist for 11 years. She and her hus­band, Ajay, start­ed their fam­i­ly when they lived in Toron­to, Cana­da. Ajay came to the Char­lotte area to work for Time Warn­er Cable eight years ago. Dr. Seth and the girls fol­lowed two years lat­er.

While rais­ing Muskaan, now 13, and Kashish, 9, she worked as an asso­ciate den­tist at the Union Coun­ty, N.C., health depart­ment. “The kids were lit­tle. Now they’ve grown up a lit­tle bit – one is in fourth grade, one is in sev­enth – so I think it’s time for me to take care of the patients now,” says Dr. Seth, beam­ing with under­stand­able pride.

Her sparkling new office at 8390 Char­lotte Hwy., across from Indi­an Land High School, opened in ear­ly August. She and Ajay, who has helped with mar­ket­ing, have invest­ed in state-of-the-art equip­ment – deliv­ered with a warm, per­son­al touch aimed at mak­ing a trip to the den­tist as close to pleas­ant as pos­si­ble.

“This is a gen­er­al den­tistry prac­tice, where we do every­thing like a root canal, crowns, bridges, fill­ings, den­tures and extrac­tions,” Dr. Seth says. “We see kids one year and up – all the way up to 99!”

York Elec­tric Coop­er­a­tive mem­bers will smile, too, when they vis­it Dr. Seth – because their Co-op Con­nec­tions card enti­tles them to Healthy Sav­ings Dis­counts. That’s because Car­oli­na Smile Den­tistry is part of the Humana Den­tal Access net­work, one of the health-care provider net­works involved in the Healthy Sav­ings Dis­counts part of the Co-op Con­nec­tions pro­gram.

“Our clin­ic is enrolled with Humana and would be hap­py to have your mem­bers as patients,” Dr. Seth says, adding, “Being new, you don’t have to wait long for appoint­ment times.” Now, there’s some­thing to smile about!

Prescription savings keep growing

York Elec­tric mem­bers have now saved almost $683,000 on pre­scrip­tions using YEC’s mem­ber­ship ben­e­fit card, Co-op Con­nec­tions, since we intro­duced the mem­ber ben­e­fit pro­gram in May 2009.

But pre­scrip­tion dis­counts are just one exam­ple of the Healthy Sav­ings Dis­counts part of Co-op Con­nec­tions pro­gram. You can also save on vision care, den­tal, hear­ing aids, lab work, imag­ing and chi­ro­prac­tor vis­its at par­tic­i­pat­ing providers.

The Co-op Con­nec­tions cards dis­trib­uted in South Car­oli­na Liv­ing in spring 2012 and again ear­li­er this year include spe­cial logos and codes on the back that enable mem­bers to obtain these Healthy Sav­ings Dis­counts through provider net­works such as Humana Den­tal Access, Coast to Coast Vision and oth­ers.

Don’t make anoth­er appoint­ment for health care ser­vices until you’ve seen how the Co-op Con­nec­tions pro­gram’s Healthy Sav­ings Dis­counts can help you!
