The Missouri Dental Insurance Reality

Even with employer coverage, Missouri residents face significant gaps in dental benefits.

"As a retired firefighter from St. Louis, my pension doesn't cover fancy dental work. Albania gave me a brand new smile for less than one implant would cost here. The quality speaks for itself—show me, they did!"

"KC BBQ is great, but our dental prices aren't so tasty. My Hollywood Smile in Albania cost $6,000—my Kansas City quote was $28,000! The dentist was more professional than any I've met stateside."
