What's the value of dental insurance?

85% of Americans believe oral health is very or extremely important to their overall health, according to a survey from Delta Dental', and about 78% have dental coverage?. When you consider the overall value of dental insurance, it's easy to understand why.

It makes dental care more affordable

While it's vital that you brush and floss regularly, it's also necessary to supplement your efforts with regular professional care. Because dental insurance focuses on prevention, many services such as preventive check-ups and cleanings are usually covered at 100 percent. Dental insurance also helps reduce your out-of-pocket costs for many procedures by sharing the cost with you. Without a dental plan, you would be responsible for the full cost of your treatment.
