Dental Insurance

Receiving regular dental care is an essential component of a person’s overall well-being. Making sure that decay, disease, and infection do not take root is necessary if you want to avoid serious health consequences in the long run. But oftentimes, the cost can keep individuals from seeking professional help. Fortunately, we are an insurance-friendly dental practice that is in-network with multiple insurance plans. By partnering with these companies, we can ensure that you and your loved ones pay the lowest possible price while still receiving the same great high-quality care.

Understanding How Dental Insurance Works

Preventive and restorative care are the two categories you will find as part of a dental plan’s available benefits. Because these services (i.e., dental checkups and teeth cleanings, dental fillings, dental crowns, tooth extractions, etc.) are designed to improve your oral and overall health, your insurance company will offer some level of coverage. However, cosmetic dental treatments like veneers, teeth whitening, and direct bonding are unlikely to be covered because they focus more on a person’s aesthetic, which is not essential for good oral health.

What Does My Dental Insurance Cover?

When reviewing your plan, you will find that most follow a similar format, which is the 100-80-50 breakdown of benefits. With preventive services covered at 100%, companies understand that not all problems can be avoided, which is why major and minor restorative services are typically covered at 50-80%. This makes it possible for you to get the care you need without having to empty your wallet.

CareCredit Financing

Not all dental treatments are covered by insurance, and complex procedures may cost more than you can afford. Fortunately, you can apply for CareCredit Financing. As a third-party company that delivers low-to-no-interest payment plans for eligible enrollees, they promise no surprise fees and instead make it easy for patients to pay off their dental care over time.
