What is Dental Cover?

What is it and how does it work?

Dental coverage comes in two forms, general and major treatment.

These will vary from fund to fund. Typically, general dental will encapsulate services such as:

Preventative dental
- Check-ups
- Cleaning
- Plaque removal
X-rays
Small Fillings

While major dental will pay benefits on more involved treatments like:

Crowns
Bridge work
Endodontics (Root Canal Treatment)
Dentures
Extraction of teeth
Orthodontics (Braces)

What would the waiting period look like?

This is going to depend on several things. Do you currently have cover? Are you new to compare health insurance? The answer to the first question will depend on your situation.

Finding the right level of cover can be confusing when it comes to adding dental. If you’d like to find out more and how this works for your situation, call us here.
