Dental Insurance for Kids
Take care of your kids’ teeth today so they can enjoy a healthy smile for a lifetime.
Beginning Care
According to the American Dental Association, pediatric dental care should begin after your child’s first tooth appears and before your child’s first birthday. Kids usually have their full set of baby teeth in place by 2 ½ to 3 years old.
Help give your child a healthy smile with Empire's dental insurance for kids in New York.
Avoid Decay
Though teeth will start to fall out between ages 6 and 7, they still need routine pediatric dental care. Tooth decay in baby teeth can cause serious health concerns if left untreated.
Protect your child’s teeth with an Empire dental plan for kids.
Encourage Brushing and Flossing
Parents can help protect their children's smiles by encouraging good cleaning habits and helping kids brush and floss every day. That can help cut down on visits to the dentist and even save on the cost of regular dental cleanings.
Explore pediatric dental plans with Empire.
For complete dental health, your children may need braces to create a healthy bite by moving teeth that are crooked, spaced badly, or don’t meet correctly. This can be a costly investment. Depending upon where you live and how much work is needed, getting braces typically costs from $3,000 to $7,500.*
Orthodontic care is considered medically necessary if your child experiences at least one of these issues:
- Spacing between adjacent teeth interferes with biting
- Overbite causes the lower front teeth to impinge on the roof of mouth when biting
- The jaw position or teeth impairs the ability to bite or chew
Dental Insurance that Covers Dentures and Major Services
Empire's plans also provide coverage for prosthetics like crowns, dentures, and bridges. Repairing your teeth with dental treatments like these can keep your smile beautiful and healthy throughout your life.
