What Parents Should Know About Dental Coverage for Their Children under the ACA and Other Sources
A child with good dental health has an easier time eating, speaking, sleeping, playing, going to school and paying attention in class. Unfortunately, tooth decay is the most common chronic early childhood disease in the United States, and dental problems cause America’s children to miss 51 million school hours a year. Part of the solution to protecting the dental health of your children is a solid dental insurance plan that is the right fit for your family.
