Dental for son?

[11cvolley]

Just got my son's ChampVA card in the mail. It says limited dental coverage. Is there a way to get dental coverage? He does have 3 cavities and may need braces in the future. Thank you for any help.

There are various plans available to you and your dependents that are eligible for CHampVA, we have the Met Life high option plan because it has no waiting periods for anything except orthodontics which is 24 months (and most of the other plans have waiting period for most major work and don't cover orthodontics at all), it  also has a higher maximum per person per year.  We haven't had a need for any major work yet but we have 5 people using it and 2 children that will need braces (our older children are already done with theirs) so it really pays for itself with cleanings and xrays and even I got for extra cleanings so 10 cleanings and xrays a year.  The premium will go up to $157 a month in Jan. I am sure a lot of folks will say is insane but each cleaning would be that much or more so for us it is a not a big deal.
