Dental Insurance – Wylie, TX

Helping Parents Navigate Their
Child’s Coverage

Navigating dental insurance is hard enough for yourself, not to mention your little one. Since children’s dental services can be different from adults’, insurance coverage can vary. Fortunately, our team files insurance claims through most companies on a daily basis, so we’re well-versed in what services are typically covered. If you have any questions or would like to learn more about your plan and whether we accept it, feel free to call our dental office. Otherwise, you can read below for some basic information about dental insurance.

Understanding How Dental Insurance Works

Dental insurance plans use complicated jargon that can present as a barrier to understanding them. Here are a few key terms you should know:

  • The maximum is a capped-off amount of money that your dental insurance company will pay for your child’s treatment over the course of a calendar year.
  • The deductible is a set amount of money that your insurance company will require you to pay out-of-pocket for your child’s treatment before benefits kick-in.
  • The premium is the monthly or annual amount that you pay for your child’s benefits.

What Does Your Dental Insurance Plan Cover?

It’s important to remember that every dental insurance plan is different, so to find out if a certain treatment is covered under your family’s plan, you’ll need to contact your provider directly. However, most insurance companies determine coverage based on a 100-80-50 model. This means that they cover 100 percent of the cost of basic preventive care like checkups and cleanings, 80 percent of treatments like cavity fillings, and 50 percent of more invasive procedures like pulp therapy or a tooth extraction.
