Here in the state of Florida, we have some of the highest foreclosure rates in the entire country. As a result, we’re seeing more and more people who have lost their coverage and are no longer able to get quality dental care.

However, many conservative figures project the losses at as high as 27%. Other experts were quick to suggest that the figure is actually closer to 18%, stating that the numbers are skewed by the number of people currently on unemployment and assistance programs.
