Dental Insurance is different than a discount dental plan. With dental insurance, you get the benefit of the network discounts, like you do with a dental discount plan, AND you get insurance coverage above and beyond the discounted rates. Dental Insurance provides a specific amount of coverage for each type of service, and this coverage will vary from one plan to the next. Typically, coverage is 100% for preventive services, 80% for basic services, such as fillings, and 50% for major services, such as crowns or root canals. There could be a deductible before coverage kicks in, and most often, this deductible is waived for preventive services. Dental Insurance coverage is usually limited by an "annual maximum" amount, and this annual maximum typically varies anywhere from $1000 to $1500 per year for personal dental insurance plans. If you happen to exceed your maximum amount of coverage in a calendar year, you will still get the benefit of discounted services when you use a network dentist. Some plans specifically limit you to coverage within a preferred provider network (PPO) or a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), while other plans will offer the added benefit of coverage outside of the PPO network. Plans that offer coverage outside of the network are called "Indemnity" plans. With indemnity dental insurance plans, you may use the dentist of your choice and still receive coverage, even if that dentist is not networked with your dental plan.
