Dental coverage for seniors is wildly popular. Why don't candidates discuss it?

Cheap dental insurance is the most logical route. Even if they added it to Medicare, it would create huge inflation in another area, and people would most definitely need to add private coverage anyway.

Why would you expect dentists to opt in to accept the medicare level of payments?

Do you still have 3 private dental plans?

No. Two. I just had 3 for a few months back in whatever year that was. I kept the third plan long enough for my premium payments to reimburse them for the benefit amounts they paid for me and then dropped it. (basically using the insurance as a substitute for care credit, but the insurance got me a price reduction as well as the time payments.)
