What can be customized in the dental coverage?

What is dental insurance?
It’s no secret that medical care without insurance can be costly. Dental care can be similar. Dental insurance helps pay for all—or a portion—of the costs associated with dental care, from routine cleanings to root canals.
Why offer group dental insurance?
Many employees consider group dental insurance an essential part of their benefits package. As one of the most used group benefits, dental insurance can be a worthwhile investment for helping to attract and retain great talent.
Access to dental insurance also helps employees manage their out-of-pocket costs—and being covered makes it more likely they’ll visit the dentist regularly. That routine, preventive care helps employees avoid dental issues down the road.
How does group dental insurance work?
Most dental insurance divides dental care into three service categories: preventive, basic, and major. The service category determines the percentage of the cost insurance covers. For example, insurance may pay 80% of the cost of a service considered basic care, and the patient would pay for the remaining 20% of the cost.
With 51³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ dental insurance, routine exams and cleanings are considered preventive care and are covered at 100%—that means the patient may not pay anything for those services. Fillings are an example of basic service, and bridges are an example of major care. For basic and major care, insurance covers a percentage of the cost, and the patient is responsible for the remaining cost.
