#1 High Cost and Lack of Adequate Dental Insurance

High Frustration

The primary barrier to oral health is the exorbitant cost of dental procedures, often compounded by inadequate or non-existent dental insurance. Users frequently share stories of needing thousands of dollars for essential work like root canals and crowns, leading to delayed or avoided treatment and worsening health outcomes. This financial strain is a major source of frustration and a systemic failure in healthcare access.
