Residents of Montana find themselves in the same dilemna as people in every other state. The never-ending search for quality, affordable dental insurance for themselves or their families. Whether you live in the northeastern corner of the state near Scoby, or the southwestern corner near Dillon, finding a value plan for your dentistry never seems to get any easier.
Along with fuel prices, food, utilities, taxes, and everything else, the costs associated with good dental care seem to keep rising. With the rise in prices comes the rise in rates for dental plans and insurance premiums.
The Big Sky state is currently home to roughly one million people, each of whom require dental care at some point. If the market is there, the insurance companies will be too. Whether you live in the larger Montana cities: Billings, Missoula, Great Falls, Bozeman, Butte, Silver Bow, Helena, Kalispell, Havre, Anaconda, or the smaller towns in between, finding dental care in MT is easy if you know where to look.
Sometimes the state's latest statistics can help guide you as well. Some of the relevant dental statistics for Montana can be found here if you are interested in more in-depth numbers to aid your research.

Some basic statistics about Montana can put the current state of dental health care into perspective. The U.S. Census Bureau takes a census of the population every 10 years. They conduct censuses of business activity every five years. They also conduct various other surveys on an annual basis. The following data is derived from the 2020 Census as well as other surveys of business activity in Montana.
