At Clove DDS, we’re committed to making your dental care experience as simple and transparent as possible. If you're covered under United Concordia (UC) dental insurance, we're here to help you understand your benefits and guide you through the process of getting the dental care you deserve. Whether you're in need of routine checkups, fillings, or more complex treatments, we’ll ensure your coverage works for you.
Coverage Details
United Concordia offers a comprehensive PPO dental insurance plan that typically covers a wide range of dental services. The coverage percentages vary based on the type of care you need, and here’s what you can expect for each category of treatment:
- Preventive Care: Services such as cleanings, exams, fluoride treatments, and sealants are often fully covered at 100%. These essential services help maintain your oral health and prevent more serious dental problems down the road.
- Basic Care: Basic dental treatments, like fillings, extractions, and scaling/root planing, are usually covered at 70%-80%. These procedures are designed to address common dental issues and keep your teeth in good condition.
- Major Care: Major dental services such as crowns, dentures, bridges, and root canals are typically covered at 50%. These treatments are necessary when you need to restore or replace damaged or missing teeth.
- Orthodontics: United Concordia often provides partial coverage for orthodontic treatments like braces or clear aligners, but there may be a lifetime maximum benefit. It’s always a good idea to confirm specific coverage details, especially if you're considering orthodontic treatment.
Note: While the above coverage estimates are common, the specifics can vary based on your individual plan. Always verify your benefits to understand your exact coverage and out-of-pocket costs.
