The truth is, even without a federal mandate, people have bought – and will continue to buy – dental insurance for a variety of reasons. Here are three of the most common reasons for buying dental insurance: Reason 1: To Pay for Costly Care Dental care can be as simple as a twice-yearly visit for a professional cleaning and x-rays. On the other hand, it can involve costly care, such as oral surgery, getting a full set of dentures, or needing a crown. Because expenses can mount quickly – especially if dental work is required as a result of an emergency – it truly pays to be covered. Reason 2: To Maintain a Healthy Mouth Preventing oral health problems before they start is one of the best ways to keep dental costs down. Many studies have shown that regular dental check-ups and cleanings help people keep their teeth and gums healthy. That’s why most insurance plans pay 100% for check-ups every 6 months. Reason 3: To Protect Overall Health You may not know it, but the truth is, there’s an awful lot a dentist can tell while gazing into your mouth. Studies have shown that our mouths can exhibit symptoms related to more than 120 different non-dental diseases, including diabetes and heart disease.
