Dental Insurance

When you have health insurance, many of your expenses are paid when you receive preventive care services, such as yearly checkups and regular screening tests. Many medical providers and health plans will even remind you when you need preventive care. It is important because preventive care often makes it possible to identify any health concerns early, when there is plenty of time to treat the concerns and preserve your good health

Depends on your plan. Some let you see any dentists you want. Others limit your care to a dentist within a network. Usually, out-of-pocket costs are higher with out-of-network dentists.

Most insurance plans allow you to see specialists (such as oral surgeons and orthodontists) who are also in your network.
