Many employers offer dental coverage to their employees. You would need to pay your employer for access to their group dental insurance plan. This would likely be a better deal than the ones you would get elsewhere.<\/p>\n

Group rates are much lower per person than individual rates are. Your plan also may be partly subsidized through work. This means that you’ll need to pay even less money.<\/p>\n

However, be careful that you read the fine print. Many employers don’t offer coverage on major dental procedures. They just give you the basics, which means that you’ll likely need to purchase supplemental insurance to meet your needs.<\/p>\n

This still may be less expensive than buying all insurance on your own. However, if you have greater needs or want to pay for insurance all in one place, this may not be for you. Individual coverage has advantages in that you can pick the precise plan that you and your family need.<\/p>\n
