Understanding How Dental Insurance Works
Typically, most dental insurance companies offer available coverage for preventive and restorative care. These are the two most common umbrella categories that provide services capable of improving oral health and minimizing future problems. Cosmetic dentistry, however, is not usually covered because services such as teeth whitening, veneers, and dental bonding are reserved primarily for aesthetic purposes, which means they’re elective and not necessary.
What Does My Dental Insurance Cover?
The only way to find out what your dental insurance will cover is to either review your policy on your own or have a member of our team do it for you. Once we can look it over and determine your available coverage, we will be able to better recommend various treatment options as well as how you can save money throughout the year.
Most policies, though, tend to follow a similar format when it comes to available benefits, such as:
- 100% preventive services (i.e., dental checkups, cleanings, X-rays)
- 80% minor restorative services (i.e., dental fillings)
- 50% major restorative services (i.e., root canal therapy, tooth extractions)
