When families can’t afford dental care or don’t have an employer that offers it, they skip it. Unfortunately, about 130 million Americans lack private dental coverage.

​

This includes*:

​

• 22 percent of children between ages 1 and 17

• 40 percent of adults between 21 and 64

• 70 percent of seniors age 65 and older

​

Without dental coverage, most are discouraged from obtaining proper diagnostic, preventive, and restorative care.

We know that understanding dental insurance is daunting, and we want to help our community members, families, and local businesses to cut out the middle men, fight big insurance, and access a plan that allows everyone to afford quality dental care.
