Guardian Dental Insurance in Northridge

19

Guardian offers several tiers of PPO dental plans, from a basic Starter option to the more comprehensive Diamond plan, and each tier covers meaningfully different services. Our Northridge office works with Guardian members regularly, and the first thing we do is identify your specific plan tier, since Guardian's coverage, especially for major services and orthodontics varies noticeably between levels.

How Your Guardian Plan Tier Affects Coverage

Guardian's PPO plans are organized into tiers, and here's generally what each level of coverage looks like:

  • Preventive Care: Nearly all Guardian tiers cover cleanings and exams at or near 100% from day one, with no deductible required for these visits.

  • Basic Services: Fillings and extractions range from 50% to 85% depending on your specific tier, with higher-tier plans offering immediate coverage and no waiting period.

  • Major Services: Crowns, root canals, and implants are typically covered around 50-60%, though lower Guardian tiers may exclude major services entirely.

  • Orthodontic Coverage: Guardian's higher tiers include notably strong orthodontic benefits, often with a generous lifetime maximum compared to many competing plans.

Guardian's tier system genuinely changes what a visit costs you, so knowing yours matters. Stop by our Roscoe Boulevard office with your Guardian ID, and we'll confirm your exact tier and coverage details before recommending any treatment.
