Your Lincoln Dentist Accepts Aetna Dental Insurance

Are you insured by Aetna Dental? There are a variety of options for coverage through Aetna. No matter what type of plan you choose, you are eligible to receive certain dental services either for free or greatly reduced by your insurance plan. Williamsburg Dental is in-network with Aetna -- keep reading to learn more about your coverage and how to make the most out of your investment.

Dental Insurance: The Basics

When you select a dentist who is in-network with your insurance provider, you are choosing a dental office that has come to an agreement to provide dental care at a certain reduced fee. It works simply -- just come in for your visit, pay any money you owe at the time you receive services, and your dentist receives the full payment after the claim has been processed and filed. Our experienced staff takes care of all paperwork to make using your dental insurance a breeze.

You may have a premium associated with your dental insurance. That’s the monthly fee you pay in exchange for services. If you have a deductible, you will be expected to pay that amount out-of-pocket before your insurance will take effect. An annual maximum is the amount up to which your insurance must pay for services.

Wondering how to make the most out of your dental insurance plan? Start by finding out what your plan covers. It depends on how much you pay as a premium -- typically, a higher premium equals better coverage. Then make sure you take advantage of your free services before they expire at the end of each year.

You’re Fully Covered for Preventive Care

Preventive dental care (think your checkup and cleaning, x-rays, and fluoride treatments) should be completely covered by your Aetna dental insurance. It is much easier to prevent problems from occurring than it is to fix decay and infection. Taking advantage of your dental insurance benefits is important for maintaining solid dental health for years to come.

During your six month checkup and cleaning, your dental hygienist will remove plaque and tartar from the surface of your teeth and around the gums. Then your dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth for issues like cavities, gum disease, worn dental work, and even oral cancer. Early detection is often the key for providing conservative, successful treatment of these and other issues.

If a problem does pop up from time to time, your dental insurance will cover a large portion of restorative treatments like fillings, crowns, bridges, root canals, and extraction. Contact your provider directly to find out what services you are eligible for.
