Why Should I Have Dental Insurance?

Because tooth decay is the single most common chronic disease in both children and adults. More than 40% of children under the age of 11 suffer from dental caries. Prevention is better than cure! Dental insurance makes routine check-ups for you and your family affordable.

How Will We Benefit?

Untreated tooth decay can lead to problems with eating and speaking not to mention pain. Emergency treatment can be expensive and is avoidable! Dental insurance is not expensive. Neglect is!

What Is Covered?

This depends on your policy but you can expect coverage for common dental care issues and help to budget for dental services at all levels: preventative, basic, and major.

How Much Can I Expect To Pay?

Of course, this depends on the coverage and your choice of deductible and co-pay. Basic coverage can be as little as $10 per month and even the most comprehensive plans should not exceed $30 per month. We can advise you on the policies which offer you the best value. If you are considering vision as well, you can save on your premiums by combining them. You might even consider paying an annual premium to make further savings.

NOTE: Basic dental care for children under the age of 18 is included in all health insurance plans.

Can I Choose My Own Dentist?

Broadly speaking your chosen insurance company will maintain a network of dentists (Dental Health Maintenance Organization, DHMO) who will provide the required dental services at an agreed cost.

Alternatively, some policies allow you to choose an Out of Network provider. These are normally more expensive and the services may be charged at a higher rate.

Finally, you may take out an indemnity policy which allows you to choose, for example, your own dentist. While this gives you freedom of choice it is likely to be more expensive.
