Plan Details
Dental Insurance Policy Benefits Two plans to choose from: Indemnity or PPO
Optional Services Services that are more expensive than the form of treatment customarily provided under accepted dental practice standards are called "Optional Services." Optional Services also include the use of specialized techniques instead of standard procedures. For example: (a) a crown where a filling would restore the tooth; (b) a precision denture/partial where a standard denture/partial could be used; (c) an inlay/onlay instead of an amalgam restoration; (d) a composite/resin restoration instead of an amalgam restoration on posterior teeth. If a member receives Optional Services, your Benefits will be based on the lower cost of the customary service or standard practice instead of the higher cost of the Optional Service. Member will be responsible for the difference between the higher cost of the Optional Service and the lower cost of the customary service or standard practice.
