Do I Need Dental Insurance?

If you follow a good oral health routine, have no dental issues and regularly see a dentist, it may not make financial sense to take out dental insurance when you can just pay out of pocket. However, you never know when you might need it! Always remember to weigh up the “what if” scenarios when looking at your financial situation. Also keep in mind that some dental insurance policies have a waiting period before they begin so don’t wait until it’s too late to find coverage.

Studies show that Americans without dental coverage are more likely to put off going to the dentist if issues arise, as the worry of potentially paying a lot out of pocket is enough to keep them away. This also means that those without dental insurance end up being the ones most likely to need some sort of dental treatment. With a wide variety of plans and providers to choose from, you will be able to find dental insurance to suit your budget.

How Do I Get Dental Insurance?

In Colorado, you can get dental insurance either as part of your health insurance plan, or as a standalone policy. Keep in mind, there are some decisions to be made regarding which policy to choose as it can depend on whether you want a family or single plan, the amount of deductible you need to meet and what other health concerns you may have.

The easiest way to see the different types of coverage you can get is by shopping around online. There are many marketplaces, comparison sites and decision making tools you can use to find the right coverage for you. If you have questions about if your dentist will accept your insurance, check before making an appointment. Here at CK Dental we are happy to answer any insurance related question.
