Teeth are important - even though insurance companies make us feel like it's an indulgence to care for our teeth! I think it's sickening, how little dental insurance covers.

Absolutely! Dental, save cosmetic stuff and dentures, is covered where I am living in Europe and many other countries. They consider it part of health care.
Once the pandemic eases my husband will finally get a molar fixed. He's had only one half of one of his for over a year now. A dental surgeon in New Jersey wanted $6,000 for the pulling and bridge. We couldn't do that.
