Q: Why Do You Need A Dental Plan?

'
A: Because having dental coverage makes it easier for you to afford regular dental check-ups which in turn will help...

1. STOP oral cancer - Regular dental check-ups reduce the risk.

2. STOP gum disease - Gum disease results in tooth loss and has been linked to heart disease and strokes.

3. STOP bad breath - It's been reported that about 85% of people who continually have bad breath usually have a dental condition that needs professional attention.

4. STOP tooth decay - Regular dental check-ups are essential to prevent tooth decay that can lead to other health problems.

5. STOP adult tooth loss because gum disease is the leading cause of adult tooth loss.

In the past several years, new studies and dental research have linked gum disease to heart disease, pancreatic cancer, strokes and other health problems.

While gum disease is very serious, it's also very easy to prevent; just see a dentist! Dental plans make it more affordable for people to see the dentist. Without a good dental plan, people avoid going to the dentist because they think it costs too much.
