Beam Dental Partners with GLO Science to Add Teeth Whitening to Benefits Portfolio

Beam to provide qualified members with exclusive access to free teeth whitening kits


COLUMBUS, Ohio, Nov. 09, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beam Dental, a digitally native dental administrator that rewards its members for good dental hygiene, today announced a new partnership with GLO Science to provide exclusive access to sample free teeth whitening kits for qualified dental insurance members.**

GLO Science’s at-home brush on whitening gel brightens teeth without the need for messy strips or uncomfortable trays. GLO Science whitening gel is enamel-safe and sensitivity-free. Developed by a dentist, it is also vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free, and made in the USA.

The partnership aligns with Beam’s commitment to make dental coverage easier, smarter and more preventative than ever before. The whitening kits add to Beam Dental’s growing benefits portfolio, which also includes vision insurance, powered by VSP®, and group term life and disability coverage for employers of all sizes in partnership with Nationwide®.

“As companies evaluate their benefits offerings this fall, they’ll look toward digital-first benefits to complement their increasingly remote workforces,” said Alex Frommeyer, CEO and co-founder of Beam. “Our partnership with GLO Science is just the first of several new offerings that our members can expect over the next year.”

Since its inception in 2012, Beam has grown to over 250 employees, expanded to serve employers in 43 states and increased its access to dental networks to 400,000 providers nationwide.¶ Beam continues to upend dental benefits by incentivizing healthy behaviors, automating the proposal process and forging new partnerships within the employee benefits ecosystem and insurance value chain.

“Beam is a true innovator in the dental wellness space. They make it easy to take care of your dental health, while also earning rewards for doing so,” said Rick Hynes, CEO of GLO Science. “We’re excited to partner with the team and add even more resources for Beam’s members, employers and brokers.”

Groups with Beam Dental who have effective dates between October 1, 2021 and January 1, 2022 are eligible for the benefit.
