How Cigna Dental Insurance Works
Dental insurance aims to prevent the need for costly, complex restorative care by making the treatments necessary to maintain great oral health free or significantly reduced. You are eligible to receive two checkups and cleanings with x-rays for free each year. Topical fluoride treatments and dental sealants may also be covered for children, who are at a greater risk of developing cavities.
Cigna dental plans are set up on a fee-for-service basis, meaning you pay a set amount monthly in exchange for care. This amount, known as your premium, is usually around $50/month. Once you reach a deductible -- or the amount you must pay out of pocket before your insurance will kick in -- you may be able to receive up to $1,500 worth of necessary care.
Maximizing Your Benefits
It is important to understand how your dental insurance works to make the most out of your investment. Our team can walk you through the specifics of your coverage after we perform a verification of benefits, when we call Cigna and find out just what you are eligible for and what the terms of your coverage are.
Visiting an in-network dentist is important because it reduces your out-of-pocket costs. When you come see us for a service that is completely covered under your plan, no money exchanges hands at all. And anytime you do owe a portion of the fees, simply pay them at the time you receive the service. We will file the claim and make sure we receive the full amount on the back end.
While we always work to help patients take full advantage of their dental insurance benefits no matter the provider, we also encourage you to make decisions based on what is best for your oral health than strictly what is covered by your plan. We can provide informed, personalized advice to help you make these decisions when the time comes.
Preventive Care Is Key
Make sure you are scheduling and attending two checkups and cleanings per year with your dental insurance. These visits are free, so there is no reason to skip out on them. Plus, by removing plaque and tartar and checking for potential issues that are lurking beneath the surface, these six month checkups and cleanings also help make sure you can enjoy a healthy smile with a full set of teeth for a lifetime to come.
