Tooth decay and gum disease are just some of the many problems that may occur without regular dental care. Unfortunately, many health insurance plans across Canada do not offer the necessary amount of coverage needed to ensure proper dental care. Here is an overview of the average costs of common dental procedures in Canada: • Cleanings: $150-$200 When dental insurance is not covered by a health insurance plan, many individuals become discouraged to visit the dentist and therefore increase their risk for serious dental or gum problems. Dental care is essential to your personal well being and supplemental dental care coverage can ensure that you and your family receive the proper care you need. Dental appointments are especially important for children. Regular cleanings and dental evaluations can prevent the development of severe conditions that will require major and very expensive treatment later on in life. You can choose a dental insurance plan that would provide your whole family with the coverage you need. A good dental insurance plan covers you when your provincial health insurance plan does not. Supplemental health insurance plans provide you and your family with the important extra coverage you require. Refer to the Canadian Dental Association for more information on the importance of dental care.
