Lack of Dental Insurance
Did you know that around 40 percent of Americans lacked dental insurance at the end of 2012? This according to the National Association of Dental Plans. That is compared to 12.9 percent without health insurance, according to the latest figures from Gallup. Those lacking coverage are far less likely to see a dentist, both for regular preventive exams and treatment of acute pain and other problems. 56 percent of those without dental insurance skip preventive treatment altogether, often times due to cost.
Yet most dental insurance plans provide preventive at very low cost. There are also low cost dental insurance plans like dental HMO’s that run around $10- $20 a month for an individual that provide, X-rays, Office Visits and Basic Cleaning’s for Free.
