What’s the benefit of a dental plan? Saving money and staying healthy. Here’s how:

• Low-cost preventive care: Dental plans cover most or all of the cost of regular exams, cleanings, and x-rays to prevent more serious and expensive problems.

• Lower rates for treatment: Dentists in the insurance company’s network have agreed to fees that may be lower than what they usually charge.

• Lower out-of-pocket cost: Plans usually cover half or more of the cost of most treatments like cavity fillings, root canals, and crowns.

People with dental benefits are more likely to visit the dentist and regularly report better oral health and overall well-being.

That’s why your dental plan is a reason to smile!
