Are Dental Implants Covered by Insurance?
In this video, Dr. Robert Ellis explains how dental insurance typically works for implants, including annual benefit limits and what patients can expect from different plans.
Insurance coverage for dental implants varies by plan. Some dental plans cover as much as 80% of the cost, while others may only pay a flat amount, which is often around $1,000. Most plans don’t function like traditional medical insurance, where you pay out-of-pocket until the insurer covers the rest. Instead, dental plans usually provide an annual benefit, typically between $1,000 and $5,000, that can be applied toward approved procedures up to that limit.
