Understanding How Dental Insurance Works
While many people treat dental insurance in the same way they do their medical insurance, the two couldn’t be more different. For one, medical insurance is only used when it’s absolutely needed, such as when an illness or emergency appears. In contrast, dental insurance is designed to be used regularly, ideally for preventive treatments like cleanings, checkups, and X-rays. These treatments, along with at-home oral care, are the most effective methods for preventing the majority of dental disease.
What Your Dental Insurance Plan Covers
While you should always read your dental insurance plan’s coverage in detail, most plans cover certain treatments in similar ways. Below, you’ll find a breakdown of the type of coverage you can expect when the time comes to pay for treatments.
- Preventive Care – Includes checkups, cleanings, X-rays and occasionally fluoride treatment. Most plans cover 80 to 100% of your costs.
- Minor Restorative Care – Typically reserved for treatments that involve restoring damaged or infected teeth, including tooth-colored fillings and root canal treatment. Generally, this covers 70 to 80% of costs.
- Major Restorative Care – Includes more complex restorative treatments like dental crowns, dentures, and bridges. Many plans cover 50 to 60% of your costs.
