When you work full time, it’s common to have employer-sponsored dental insurance. Unfortunately, however, after retirement, many patients lose that coverage. Worse yet, programs like Medicare don’t always cover oral health care, putting seniors in a bind. The great news is that your dentist offers a valuable in-house membership plan that can help save you money on preventive and restorative care without the need for dental insurance. Here’s more about why if you’re a senior, or if you simply don’t have dental insurance coverage, the KLEER In-house Membership plan may be right for you!
Why is Oral Health Care so Important for Seniors?
As you get older, it may seem like the condition and appearance of your smile shouldn’t matter as much as it used to. But the truth is, your oral health is closely connected to your overall health, and small problems in the mouth can quickly worsen and create bigger issues throughout the body. For example, while you may believe that periodontal disease only damages your teeth and gums, it can also negatively affect serious conditions like Alzheimer’s disease, diabetes, and high blood pressure. Lost teeth can also make it hard to get essential nutrients that keep your body healthy and strong as you age.
The good news is that when you care for your smile, you can help prevent many of these issues, keeping you looking and feeling your best!
What is the KLEER In-house Membership Plan?
The KLEER In-house Membership plan is a 12-month plan that includes routine preventive oral health care at no additional cost. There are no deductibles, waiting periods, annual maximums, denials of claims, and no need for pre-approvals. Additionally, your plan provides valuable discounts of up to 20 percent on some treatments offered at your dentist’s office, and one emergency exam for those unexpectedly urgent oral health issues.
Is the KLEER In-House Membership Plan Good for Seniors?
The great news is that yes, the KLEER In-house Membership plan is an excellent choice for many seniors. That’s because in addition to being very affordable, this program is effective for 12 months beginning on the date you enroll and is convenient way to ensure that your preventive dental care is covered. There’s no need to worry about waiting periods, pre-existing conditions, or high deductibles, either!
Remember, oral health care is just as important if not more important in your senior years as it ever was. If you do not have dental insurance coverage, don’t overspend or cut corners on caring for your smile.
