Dental emergencies can be stressful — especially if you’re unsure whether your insurance will cover the visit. Fortunately, most dental plans do include some coverage for emergency care, but it’s important to know the details.
Here’s how to check:
📞 1. Call Your Insurance Provider
Ask them directly:
- Is emergency dental care covered?
- What procedures qualify as “emergency” (e.g., extractions, exams, x-rays)?
- Is there a per-visit limit or deductible?
📄 2. Look at Your Benefits Booklet
Find the section on emergency services — this will outline:
- Reimbursement rates (usually 80–100%)
- Whether coverage applies only to in-network clinics
- Any documentation required (like x-rays or diagnostic notes)
🏥 3. Ask Your Dental Office for Help
We can help verify your coverage before or during the visit — and we can submit a pre-treatment estimate if needed.
✅ Tip: Keep Records
If you need to pay upfront and claim later, keep all receipts and treatment details for reimbursement.
