Understanding Dental Insurance
Dental care is very important for your overall health & wellness, & dental insurance is how most people access that care. As with other insurances, dental insurance can be confusing, & unfortunately, that confusion can keep patients from making it in to see a dentist.
At Daniels Dental Care, we know there are many barriers to getting quality dental care. We do our best to break down those barriers. In addition to our convenient hours, we are in-network with Delta Dental PPO, Cigna, Aetna, MetLife, Anthem Blue Cross, Guardian, & United Concordia.
Additionally, we try to make that insurance easy for you to understand & access. We are happy to answer any questions you have about your insurance, & we do our best to maximize your dental insurance plan you have so you pay as little as possible for your care.
What Is Dental Insurance & How Does it Work?
Dental insurance can be confusing, but it can also be very helpful in making dental care affordable for patients. Most patients get their insurance through their employer, who sometimes chips in some of the cost, making it even more affordable.
Essentially, patients with dental insurance pay a certain amount each month to their insurance provider to stay enrolled & in exchange get free or discounted dental services, depending on the specific insurance plan. Most plans cover preventive care at 100%, including two teeth cleanings per year as well as exams & x-rays. After that, basic care & major procedures are covered at different percentages, with the patient paying a greater portion for major procedures.
In-Network vs. Out-of-Network
Many patients get confused about whether a dental practice is in-network or out-of-network with their dental insurance provider & what that means. While “out-of-network” sounds like the practice wouldn’t take your insurance, that’s not always the case & depends on the type of insurance plan you have.
PPO Plans
PPO plans are much more flexible & the distinction between in-network & out-of-network is much less limiting. When a dental practice is in-network with a PPO insurance provider, it just means they have a deal where the practice can charge the patient a smaller portion of the total cost for treatment services. However, even out-of-network costs are often quite reasonable.
How to Choose a Dentist
Regardless of insurance considerations, we encourage you to select your dentist based on other important factors, such as availability around your busy schedule & accommodation by the dentist & staff.
