Smile for Health—Wellness Program
Enhanced benefits for people with certain medical conditions
Research shows that people with certain medical conditions who receive treatment for gum disease can save thousands of dollars a year in medical costs.
That’s why your dental offers additional coverage for the services that treat gum disease, for you or your covered dependents who have:
- diabetes
- heart disease
- organ transplant
- lupus
- oral cancer
- cerebrovascular disease
- rheumatoid arthritis
- pregnancy
Included in your dental enrollment at no additional cost to you, Smile for Health—Wellness provides:
- 100% coverage for the services needed to treat and control gum disease
- Regular notifications on using the program and tips to help you maintain good oral health
