What Your Dental Insurance Plan Covers
It’s not uncommon for most dental insurance plans to cover:.
-
80-100% preventive services (i.e., dental exams, cleaning, X-rays)
-
70-80% minor restorative services (i.e., dental fillings)
-
50% major restorative services (i.e., dental crowns, root canal therapy)
No two policies are the same, however, which is why it’s important that you review your plan
beforehand. Also, if you
need orthodontic treatment for a member of your family, make sure to review your policy to
determine if it’s included.
If so, there may be age restrictions as to who your dental insurance carrier will cover.
You’ll also want to check the
type of braces a person can receive.
