megan 

Megan graduated a few years ago and started her career as a freelance events planner and knows she will be falling off her parents’ insurance next year.

Now that I’m done with college, started my career, and soon-to-be off of my parents’ insurance, I need something that covers my needs without being too expensive. I have healthy teeth, so I don’t need anything major, just some cleanings and maybe a few x-rays here and there. I know how important it is to see a dentist at least twice a year, and those cleanings can be expensive if I don’t plan for them. I don’t expect to match my parents’ plan, but I want something that at least covers the basics.

Andrew works hard as an HVAC inspector but doesn’t have benefits through his employer, a tiny family-owned business.

I get my teeth cleaned twice a year and that’s all I really need right now. The dentist says I don’t have any issues to worry about so long as I keep up my good brushing and flossing routines. But without insurance, even those basic cleanings plus x-rays really can add up. I’m trying to save for a new car, pay off my loans, and look after my nephew. I’ve got good teeth and I want to keep it that way. For me, a little bit of extra help goes a long way.
