DENTAL INSURANCE
Protect your overall health by protecting your oral health
Maintaining the health of your teeth and gums gives you much more than an attractive smile. Research shows that oral health, preventative care, and regular dental visits are important to your overall health. In fact, gum disease has been linked to heart problems and can increase blood sugar, which can increase risk among diabetics.
