Dental Benefit, Looking for cosmetic services benefits

Wednesday, Mar. 2nd 2016 6:14 AM

Question: I need to have two dental implants and would like to have my teeth whiten.  Although I do have dental insurance I was told they do not cover for cosmetic which they are saying the implants are since I do not want the cheaper choice of a bridge.  Also they do not cover for any teeth whiten treatments.  My dentist told me it can be hard to find dental insurance that will cover the very dental services I am wanting.  I am really upset and I am hoping someone will have some suggestions for me.

Answer: Your dentist is correct that many dental insurance plans do not provide dental benefits for implants (mostly because of cost of implants are just too high) and other cosmetic dental services such as whitening.

There are dental discount plans that will save you around 15-20 percent off the cost of these types of services. However, you need to go to dentist that are within the dental discount plans network of providers. Dentist that will normally do these type of dental services are not easy to find within a dental discount plan but it still worth looking into.

You may also want to call your current dental insurance company up to see if they have a cosmetic rider that they can offer you that will cover these types of dental care services. That too is worth checking into if it can be offered.
