Frequently asked questions
You can contact your insurance provider directly to learn about your coverage details. Alternatively, our team is here to help you obtain a summary of your benefits. Just provide us with your carrier name and subscriber ID.
Although our office may not have a direct contract with your insurance provider, we still accept your insurance. For insurance carriers with whom we have a contract, we offer in-network fees. If you are with an out-of-network carrier, we use the standard service prices and apply your out-of-network benefits to calculate your out-of-pocket costs. We accept major PPO insurances but are not contracted with Medicaid, Medicare, or HMO plans.
Dental insurance functions similarly to other employer-provided benefits like medical and vision insurance. It is usually offered by employers and involves monthly premiums, provider restrictions, and a range of benefits. However, unlike medical insurance, which covers costs once the individual hits their out-of-pocket maximum, dental insurance has an annual reimbursement limit set by the provider.
Dental insurance works similarly to medical insurance, but with a key difference: the insurer covers costs up to a set limit during a benefit period, and the patient pays for any expenses beyond that limit. Knowing your plan's maximum coverage is crucial, especially for more costly treatments. Dental PPO plans usually classify coverage into preventive, basic, and major services, each with different reimbursement rates. Reviewing your specific benefits is essential to understand your coverage and any out-of-pocket costs you'll need to cover.
Dental insurance generally covers a broad spectrum of services, including exams, cleanings, fillings, crowns, oral surgery, and orthodontics. These services are divided into categories: preventive, basic, and major, with coverage percentages typically set at 100%, 80%, and 50%, respectively. Orthodontic coverage has distinct rules, such as age restrictions, eligible individuals, and maximum benefits. Unlike other services, orthodontic coverage usually has a lifetime maximum rather than an annual limit.
A PPO, or preferred provider organization, lets you visit any dentist without needing a referral. However, you'll save money by choosing a dentist within the PPO network. This contrasts with HMO/DHMO plans, which require you to select a primary dentist and only allow visits to specialists through referrals. HMO/DHMO plans generally offer lower costs and minimal copayments for services.
Typically, PPO plans cover two exams and cleanings per calendar year.
Yes, dental implants are often covered by insurance, but there are exceptions and important conditions to consider. For instance, if you were already missing a tooth and your insurance includes a "missing tooth clause," the implant may not be covered. We can help you understand the specific rules and coverage details for your plan.
Yes, orthodontic coverage, including for Invisalign, often has specific rules related to age, eligible members, and coverage limits. Generally, it features a lifetime maximum rather than an annual limit. We can provide you with the details on how these rules apply to your specific plan.
