Why Dental Insurance Is So Important
With everything being said about medical insurance, is it any wonder that people forget about practicing good DENTAL HEALTH which will not only improve your appearance, but your quality of life?
For example, teeth that become diseased, crooked or missing can not only cause speech problems, but persons can and will experience difficulties in simply eating and chewing.* More commonly, cavities may begin as small annoyances, but can eventually penetrate a tooth's enamel and even expose the tooth's root and with that, pain, discomfort and the loss of a tooth; or having to endure expensive procedures to help save it are common with a root canal procedure.
With the lack of ROUTINE CARE, there is the possibility of gum or periodontal disease which may cause you to lose a tooth, get infections and lead to other health issues such as heart complications, strokes, diabetes complications and respiratory issues.*
Regular visits to your dental care professional can help prevent these potential issues. What better way to pay for cleanings, fillings and periodontal maintenance than through a METLIFE DENTAL plan. On average, you will be able to save over $300 in cleanings alone by having the two free cleanings a year which are covered at 100%. Or you may be able to pay a fraction of the cost of MINOR and MAJOR dental services by purchasing a plan, saving you hundreds or even thousands of dollars in out of pocket expenses.
What better reason to have dental insurance as part of your overall health and wellness goals for this year. With three MetLife Dental plans tailored to your needs, and well over 6,000 dentists in the Fairfield and Hartford counties to choose from, your quality of life will have just improved!
