At our Northridge office, we treat your UnitedHealthcare dental plan as a starting point for a conversation, not a static number on an ID card. UHC's dental PPO network gives you the freedom to see any licensed dentist, and we happen to be a participating provider, meaning your visit gets the maximum benefit your plan allows. Before any treatment, we walk through exactly what UnitedHealthcare will pay and what falls to you.

Where Your UnitedHealthcare Plan Pays

UnitedHealthcare's dental PPO plans generally follow a 100/80/50 structure, and our Northridge team makes sure that structure works in your favor at every appointment:

  1. Preventive Care: Exams, cleanings, and routine X-rays are usually covered at 100% in-network UnitedHealthcare's way of rewarding the visits that stop small issues before they become expensive ones.

  2. Basic Care: Fillings and simple extractions typically land in the 70%-80% range, so a cavity found during your cleaning gets treated the same day instead of becoming a separate errand.

  3. Major Care: Crowns, bridges, dentures, and root canals are commonly covered around 50%, and we confirm the exact figure with UnitedHealthcare before recommending any of these treatments.

  4. Orthodontics: Many UHC plans extend orthodontic benefits to dependents under 19, with adult coverage sometimes available on select plans, subject to a waiting period we'll check for you.

UnitedHealthcare's nationwide PPO network means you're never locked into one office but our Northridge location at 18546 Roscoe Blvd #230 makes staying local easy. Stop by for a benefits check before booking anything major, and we'll tell you exactly what your plan covers, what it doesn't, and where the gaps might catch you off guard.

The Staff make me feel so welcome. Dr. Pence has been my dentist for 40 years and has always given me the best of his experience and knowledge in the field. Marilyn, Lupita, and Alma have treated me like family for years. I can't imagine going anywhere else.
