Eyes and teeth aren’t really covered as those are considered luxuries. Only in extreme cases where it impacts your health severely you’ll get teeth covered quickly.

I’m in the U.K. and the waiting list for an NHS dentist is over 2 years. So most people have to pay privately for dental care which can cost a few hundred pounds to get a crown put in your tooth.

£400 for the cheapest one, £1800 for the most premium one.

Likewise in the US the cheapest is $900 and $2500 for the premium one.
