Dental insurance is complex and every plan is different. But if you want to understand your policy and maximize your benefits, there are a few steps you can usually take. Learn more from Parkside Dental now.
In-network dentists will always provide more affordable care compared to out of network dentists if you have a PPO, and HMOs do not allow you to get care from dentists who are outside of the HMO network.
At Parkside Dental, our Murphy dentist accepts Cigna, MetLife, Delta, Guardian, Ameritas, Humana, Aetna, and BlueCross BlueShield, as well as many other providers. Call at (972) 442-7550 to see if we accept your policy.
Twice-yearly dental checkups are usually provided at no cost in dental plans, so you can see your Murphy family dentist twice a year for teeth cleanings and oral exams at Parkside Dental, and you won’t pay any money out of pocket. Make sure to maximize your benefits and protect your oral health by seeing our team every six months.
Most, but not all, dental plans use a 100-80-50 coverage structure. This means that your plan will pay:
This is yet another reason to maintain good at-home oral hygiene and see Parkside Dental for routine appointments. You can prevent oral health issues that may cost you a lot of money out-of-pocket, even with dental insurance.
Most dental plans have a deductible between $25 and $250. Like a health insurance plan, you must meet this deductible for your benefits to start covering your dental costs
However, unlike health insurance, almost all dental policies have an “annual maximum” of between $1,000 to $2,000. After your plan pays out this amount toward your care, it will stop covering your dental expenses. You will pay for the rest of your treatments out of pocket.
At Parkside Dental, we offer a $99 New Patient Special for customers who don't have insurance. This includes a teeth cleaning, exam, and x-rays.
We also offer a Dental Loyalty Plan as an alternative to insurance. With this plan, you will get 2 checkups and cleanings each year, necessary x-rays, and a discount between 20-50% on all other treatments from Dr. Jason Larsen at Parkside Dental.
At Parkside Dental, we do our best to keep costs under control for patients with and without insurance, and with additional financing options like CareCredit available, it’s easy to get the dental care you need in Murphy without breaking the bank. Contact us online or call at (972) 442-7550 to schedule a consultation with Dr. Jason Larsen today.
