Dental insurance has a lot of similarities to standard health insurance—in exchange for a monthly premium, policyholders gain access to a variety of fully and partially covered services. But what makes them different? The main distinction is how dental insurance focuses most of its coverage on preventive care. The idea is that by making standard checkups and cleanings easily affordable, a patient can be proactive and stop many dental problems before they even start, which in turn, will keep their care costs relatively low as the years go by.
While your insurance plan likely won’t follow this verbatim, most modern policies tend to have a benefits structure that looks something like this:
So, the best way to maximize pretty much any plan is to simply attend your two recommended checkups and cleanings each year. You’ll spend little-to-nothing out of pocket at these visits and significantly lower your risk for more complicated dental issues.
Mios Dental is in-network with many, many dental insurance providers, and this simply means we have a contract with each one to offer sizeable discounts for our services, and the savings are passed onto you. Look over the list below, and if you don’t see your provider, be sure to give us a call. We may still accept your plan, and you’ll likely be entitled to significant savings.
