Why It Matters in Missouri

Why Missouri Families Choose Brawner Insurance

Missouri farmers grow over 3 million acres of corn and soybeans annually. ECO provides MO operations with the highest level of federal crop insurance available — extending coverage up to 90% or 95% of expected county yield or revenue, ideal for high-input farms in regions facing widespread weather risks.

As an independent agency since 1992, Brawner Insurance compares dental plans from multiple top carriers to find Missouri families the right combination of coverage, network, and price. Individual, family, and group dental options available.

Your Options

PPO vs. HMO/DHMO — Which Fits You?

The two main types of dental plans work very differently. Here is what you need to know before choosing.

Option 1

Dental PPO

  • Large network with thousands of dentists
  • See any dentist — in or out of network
  • Higher monthly premium than HMO plans
  • Higher coverage when you stay in-network
  • No referrals needed for specialists
  • Best flexibility for families with existing dentists

Best for: people who want freedom of choice and already have a dentist they like.

Option 2

Dental HMO / DHMO

  • Lower monthly premium than PPO plans
  • Assigned to one primary care dentist
  • Set copays for procedures — predictable costs
  • Limited or no out-of-network coverage
  • Referrals required for most specialists
  • Best fit for budget-focused individuals and families

Best for: people who want low predictable costs and are willing to use an assigned dentist.

Key Moments

When to Review Your Dental Coverage

Life and work changes can affect your dental options. Here are the key moments to check in with us.

Starting a New Job

If you are losing employer dental coverage or your new employer does not offer it, you have a short window to enroll in individual dental. Contact Brawner before coverage lapses.

Family Change

Marriage, a new baby, or a child aging off a parent's plan all create dental enrollment opportunities. We help you find family-friendly plans with the right benefits.

Annual Open Enrollment

Most dental plans renew annually with set enrollment windows. This is your chance to switch plans, add family members, or upgrade benefits without medical questions.

Major Procedure Coming Up

If you know you need crowns, implants, orthodontics, or oral surgery, the right plan can save thousands. We help you choose plans with the right benefit categories and waiting periods.

Planning Tip: Review your dental plan every year before renewal. Carriers change benefits and networks, and a quick comparison often improves coverage or saves money.
