Coverage for cosmetic dental treatment


Cosmetic dental care is something that is becoming more and more popular in today’s society. Cosmetic dental is also something that is not covered in most dental insurance plans. Cosmetic dental treatments are normally not something that a dental insurance company deems as necessary therefore it is not covered in most plans.

Cosmetic dental treatments include:

• Braces
• Teeth Whitening
• Bleaching
• Porcelain Veneers
• Laser Gum Surgery

These are just a few of the treatments that are considered to be cosmetic in the eyes of most dental insurance companies. These types of treatments have become more and more popular over the years and this popularity and caused many dental insurance companies to change their policies and add some coverage for these cosmetic treatments. These treatments are still not entirely covered but a large percentage can be taken off. This can be a big help because some of these treatments, such as braces, can be very expensive but necessary in the eyes of the family.
