Understanding How Dental Insurance Works

Dental insurance plans tend to split various services into different categories, and each of these categories receives a unique level of coverage. The most common ones are preventive, basic restorative, and advanced restorative. How a specific procedure is categorized, and how much it is covered, varies from plan to plan, but this basic understanding should make your dental insurance policy much easier to comprehend.

What Your Dental Insurance Plan Covers

Your dental insurance plan likely follows the “100-80-50” model, which may look something like this:

  • Checkups, cleanings, X-rays, and other preventive treatments are covered 100%.
  • Fillings, bonding, and other basic restorative procedures are covered 80%.
  • Crowns, bridges, dentures, extractions, and other advanced restorative procedures are covered 50%.

These are just general numbers, and your plan’s coverage will probably be slightly different. That’s why we recommend looking over your policy and discussing your plan with our team before scheduling your appointment.
