Dental / Vision Insurance
Dental Insurance
Good dental hygiene is important to your health and appearance. Regularly scheduled dental cleanings and exams by your dentist serve several purposes. Cleanings remove stains from your teeth to keep your smiles shiny and white. Removal of plaque prevents your gum lines from receding and heads off gum disease and the development of cavities. Early detection of cavities allow fillings which prevent further decay of your teeth. Occasionally people break teeth or have them knocked out in an accident. Sometimes a tooth can be saved by a cap. Missing teeth can be replaced by dental implants or a bridge between to teeth to act in place of the missing tooth.
Many people don’t realize that advanced gum disease will not only cause a major loss of teeth but that infected gums can contribute to increased inflammation in your body and contribute to a heart attack.
Dental insurance helps you cover the cost of maintaining your teeth and reduces what you pay for caps, bridges and more expensive dental treatment from a periodontist.
