What is Dental Insurance?

An employee benefit providing coverage for preventive, basic, and major dental procedures, typically structured with annual maximums, waiting periods, and tiered co-insurance percentages following a 100-80-50 model.

Why it matters in hiring

Dental Insurance comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
