Keep your smile and your bank account healthy
Whether you’re in need of routine cleanings, braces or a filling, a solid dental plan makes it easier for you to protect your smile and your budget.1
- Routine visits to the dentist help prevent costly dental bills later on, as well as problems linked to medical conditions like diabetes or heart disease2
- If you have a choice of plans, consider your oral health needs and ability to pay for unexpected major services like a crown
- If you have children, consider more comprehensive coverage for less out-of-pocket costs, as well as an option for braces
