Witnesses testified about the high cost of dental care and the availability of dental health care insurance. They also talked about a report showing that more than four out of 10 American adults with tooth or mouth problems skipped trips to the dentist because they lacked insurance and could not afford out-of-pocket payments. They also said that the health system would save money if dental services were provided as a routine part of preventive care. close
