Why Have Dental Insurance for Kids?
Kids’ dental care can become costly once you get beyond a basic check-up and cleaning. Having dental insurance for you and your family will help make dental care more affordable, not only for preventive dental maintenance but for more extensive dental needs that may come up in the future.
On average, a family of four who see a dentist twice a year for office visits, check-ups, and cleanings can spend up to $100.00 each per visit. Add that up for the year; it is $800.00. However, the same family can buy a low-cost dental insurance plan ranging from $25-$30 a month and get free preventive care for everyone. Add the cost up, and it is only $300-$360 a year, which is an average savings of $440.00, just talking about preventive care services.
