  3. Why Are Dental Benefits Important? The link between oral health and overall health has been discussed in medical and dental journals for years. It has not been until the last few years that specific research has linked periodontal or gum disease, to complications for heart disease, stroke, diabetes, pre-term birth and other health issues. Once this link was established, research around health issues and gum disease took off. Gum disease is a chronic bacterial infection that affects the gums. In response to that, CIGNA Dental as changed our limitations on simple cleanings from 1 every 6 months to 2 annually and added a copay to cover two additional cleanings per year.
