Dental Insurance Introduction
Paper cuts and toothaches both hurt more than they should. But while the pain of a paper cut will diminish on its own, a toothache can take hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars before the pain goes away.
Enter dental insurance. Once considered a big company perk, dental insurance has established itself as a must-have benefit. In fact, according to a Society for Human Resources Management survey in 1999, 83% of small businesses offer dental insurance.
Dental care contributes to the all-around health of your employees. Low-cost preventive procedures, like cleanings, contribute to the overall health of your employees, which means a decrease in sick time.
If cost is holding you back, consider this: dental coverage is less than 10% of the cost of medical coverage -- it's more affordable than you might think.
