Understanding How Dental Insurance Works
Preventive and restorative dental care are the two categories that most dental insurance companies include in their available coverage. Cosmetic treatment is deemed elective, so you should not expect to receive any sort of financial help. However, most dentists encourage patients to use their insurance for preventive services simply because it allows individuals to save immediately and improve their oral health while also minimizing the risk of future dental problems.
What Does My Dental Insurance Cover?
Only through a review of your policy will we be able to determine what your plan covers, but most insurance carriers offer a similar breakdown of coverage, such as:
- 80-100% preventive care
- 70-80% minor restorative care
- 50% major restorative care
This allows individuals to take better care of their smiles upfront before problems develop or worsen. Although insurance companies will offer coverage for minor and major restorative services, it is less and will require you to pay some out of pocket.
