Understanding How Dental Insurance Works
While every dental insurance plan handles this differently, most tend to separate different procedures into specific categories. These categories then receive a set amount of coverage. The most common ones tend to be preventive, basic restorative, advanced restorative, and cosmetic. Generally, preventive services receive the most coverage because they help stop small problems from becoming larger, more expensive ones.
What Your Dental Insurance Plan Covers
Your dental insurance coverage probably looks similar to this:
- Preventive services are covered 100% (checkups, cleanings, X-rays)
- Basic restorative services are covered 80% (fillings, bonding)
- Advanced restorative services are covered 50% (crowns, pulp therapy)
Because cosmetic procedures are elective, they are usually not covered by insurance. However, if a treatment will improve the health of a tooth as well as its appearance, then it will likely receive at least partial coverage.
