How Dental Insurance Works
Dental insurance encourages patients to pursue preventive treatment. In addition to reducing the risk of common oral health problems, such as cavities and gum disease, it also minimizes the amount of money you are required to spend out of pocket.
Most companies provide 100% coverage for dental checkups and cleanings, so you can maintain a healthier smile year-round at no additional cost. If a problem occurs that requires restorative treatment, your dental insurance plan will still be available to help lower your out-of-pocket expenses. Depending on the type of restorative care required, your insurance may agree to pay 50-80% of the total cost.
What is the Difference Between Dental and Medical Insurance?
Medical insurance offers greater savings when more extensive treatment is required. For example, if you break your arm and need surgery to repair it, your medical plan will pay more than if you only need a wellness visit. Hospitalizations, surgical procedures, and other similar services are where you can expect to save the most when using your medical insurance.
Dental insurance, however, is vastly different. Instead of waiting until a problem occurs, they encourage patients like yourself to seek preventive care. Regular dental checkups and cleanings are usually covered at 100%, so you pay little or nothing out of pocket to receive year-round treatment. Reduced coverage is available when you require restorative care.
In-Network vs. Out-of-Network
Foundation Dental Solutions is pleased to be an insurance-friendly practice that helps patients save, regardless of the preventive or restorative treatment required. Although we are not in-network with any particular PPO plans, we do ensure all paperwork and claims filing are handled by our team. This is to ensure you receive the maximum available benefits and reimbursements.
We are not in-network with dental insurance companies because we believe in providing a level of care and service that is not constrained by the limitations these plans often impose. Instead, we care for your smile based on what it needs to thrive, while ensuring you leave more confident in the care you received.
