Dental Insurance Program
Individual Supplemental
Group Dental - Orthodontic Benefits

Need individual supplemental dental insurance?

If you live in Maryland there's no doubt that we have your two best options with the Maryland Preventive Dentistry Program and Superior Dental Group.

But if you don't live in Maryland one particular competitor of ours, DentalInsurance.com, is probably worth checking out simply because of the wide variety of plans and programs they carry. We once tried to line up a lot of different programs ourselves in order to compete with them but it turns out we don't have the resources necessary to negotiate the rates they came up with.

DentalInsurance.com has national plans as well as a number of regional plans that might be just what you're looking for today. But, remember, if you live in Maryland no one has a program good enough to beat ours!

1. Preventing tooth decay
[ Previous Section | Next Section | Return to Contents Page ] Besides sealants, are there other ways to prevent tooth decay? Yes. The best way you can help prevent tooth decay is to brush with a fluoride toothpaste and drink fluoridated water (water is fluoridated in about half the cities and towns of the United States). If your water is not fluoridated or if your teeth need more fluoride to stay healthy, your dentist can prescribe it in the form of a gel, mouthrinse or tablet. If you have a baby or a young child that needs fluoride and do not have fluoride in your water, your physician (pediatrician) or dentist can prescribe fluoride drops or tablets. Fluoride is the best defense against tooth decay! Fluoride . . . makes teeth more resistant to decay repairs tiny areas of decay before they become big cavities makes germs in the mouth less able to cause decay Fluoride helps the smooth surfaces of the teeth the most. It is less effective on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth (molars). Regular brushing -- with fluoride toothpaste -- and flossing also help prevent tooth decay. Sealants and fluoride together can prevent almost all tooth decay. [ Previous Section | Next Section | Return to Contents Page ]
