Dental insurance helps pay for dental care and usually includes regular checkups, cleanings, X-rays and services required to promote general good dental health. Some plans provide broader coverage than others, and some require a greater financial contribution from you when services are rendered.

Common dental insurance terms:

  • Diagnostics: These may include x-rays, bitewing, full-mouth, or intraoral occlusal film.
  • Preventive Care: Services that are concerned with the prevention of disease through educational and protective measures: these may include routine office visits, cleanings, check-ups, etc.
  • Basic Care: Procedures to repair and restore individual teeth due to decay, trauma, impaired function, attrition, abrasion, erosion, etc.
  • Major Care: Procedures dealing with the restoration of teeth. This could include inlays, crowns, veneers, bridges, root canals, oral surgery, etc.
