Dental insurance here has a rate list, which is fixed by ... regulatory negotiation, let's call it. It covers everything because the dentists really don't want to get pulled into single-payer. (Though every time some kid dies of an abscessed tooth there's a general call to start covering dental, which I think would be wise. Especially since there's all those indications that dental plaque and arterial plaque are the same stuff.)
