Blue Cross Blue Shield Coverage Ability & Fees

Piggy bank next to coins

By paying your premium every month, you are gaining access to more affordable dental care. Once you meet your annual deductible, your insurance provider will cover the position of the cost of your treatment. Every plan is a little bit different, but here is what a typical plan from Blue Cross Blue Shield may look like:

  • 100% coverage on preventive services.
  • 80% coverage on basic restorative services.
  • 50% coverage on major restorative services.

Blue Cross Blue Shield’s focus is mainly preventive care. By seeing your dentist for routine checkups twice annually, you can prevent issues from developing. If, despite your best efforts, an issue occurs, you can use your annual allowance to offset the cost of necessary restorative procedures.

Remember that at the end of the calendar year, your benefits expire. They will not carry over to the next year, so it is in your best interest to utilize your coverage to keep your oral health in excellent shape.
