Why Add Dental & Vision to Your Benefits Package?
Dental and vision are two of the most consistently used benefits a business can offer โ routine checkups, cleanings, and eye exams mean employees see the value of these plans every year, not just when something goes wrong. They're also some of the most cost-effective ways to round out a benefits package, since premiums are typically lower than major medical.
A Low-Cost Way to Strengthen Your Benefits Offering
For businesses not yet ready to offer a full group health plan, or looking to add more value on top of one, dental and vision are often the easiest and most affordable place to start โ and can be added as standalone coverage or bundled alongside a group medical plan.

As an independent agency, we shop dental and vision options across multiple carriers to find a plan that fits your team and your budget.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I offer dental and vision without a group health plan?
Yes โ dental and vision can be offered as standalone coverage, independent of whether you offer a group medical plan.
How much does group dental and vision typically cost?
Premiums are generally much lower than major medical coverage, and cost depends on plan design, group size, and how much (if any) the employer chooses to contribute. We'll walk through options based on your budget.
Do employees have to enroll, or can it be optional?
This depends on plan structure โ some are offered as voluntary/employee-paid benefits, while others are fully employer-sponsored. We'll help you decide what fits your business.
Are there waiting periods for major dental work?
Many plans include waiting periods for major procedures like crowns or dentures, though preventive care is typically covered right away. Exact terms vary by carrier and plan.
Can I add dental and vision later if I only offer medical now?
Yes โ dental and vision can typically be added at a later renewal or open enrollment period once you're ready to expand your benefits offering.
