It is insane that insurers will pay for bypass after bypass (along with all the tests and other treatments for heart disease) when good dental coverage could save a lot of that AND the wear and tear on patients/families that procedures to fix hearts cause.
Insane that basic preventative care is not covered even with proof that much heart disease starts in our mouths.
