Regular dental exams can help detect early signs and symptoms of disease elsewhere in the body. Practicing good oral hygiene and regular dental visits are an investment in your overall health. ## Bridging Gaps In Coverage Not all residents receive dental insurance as part of an employer benefits package and without it you could be in for an unpleasant surprise the next time you awake to a nagging toothache. Despite the connection between dental health and your overall health, dental care is not covered under your health insurance. Dental insurance covers the cost of preventative care and helps offset the cost of basic procedures such as fillings and more extensive procedures should you need them. ### Call Us Our health insurance advisors are available weekdays from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. CST to answer your questions, review your options and help you get the coverage you need.
