At what age should you get dental insurance on children?

What is the recommended age in which I should get dental insurance on a child?
--------------------
I'm a dental hygienist. I very rarely see anyone ages 2 and under. I have, however, seen several 3 year olds and older. I'd say 3 is a good age to start. Most dental insurance plans will cover 2 exams and 2 cleanings per year. They will also cover 2 fluoride treatments a year, which will help prevent cavities from forming. Many insurance programs also cover sealants (to protect the teeth from forming cavities). I hope that helps!
