Group Dental Options

It’s no secret – dental insurance is a key ingredient to any competitive employee benefits package. Smart business owners know good oral health leads to better overall health, which reduces employee absenteeism and lowers health care costs. 1

Offering quality dental coverage helps employers recruit and retain talent and makes it easier to keep employees healthy. And with our Whole Health bundling discount, employers can receive up to 2.5% off medical premiums by bundling medical and specialty benefits with CareFirst.
