  • The patient (or person responsible for the account) must pay their deductibles and estimated co-insurance at the end of every appointment.

  • The patient accepts responsibility for their account. We have no relationship with your insurance company, and you are responsible for any balances on your account after the insurance company has paid us.

What You Should Know About Dental Insurance?

Dental insurance can make it easier for you to pay for certain dental treatments. Sometimes called full-coverage plans, these dental insurance plans may cover several procedures and treatments, including corrective or cosmetic ones.

​

Here's a quick list of things to remember about dental insurance:

  • Dental insurance plans help patients offset the costs of dental treatment, but they have their limits, depending on the type and coverage of your plan. Coverage varies widely depending on cost and premium.

  • When it comes to dental treatments, the cost varies depending on the procedure. But in general, basic procedures are covered at 80%-100% by most major dental insurance plans.

  • For major dental work, most dental insurance plans cover 50% of the cost.

  • Most dental insurance plans have a yearly maximum ranging from $1,000 to $2,500.

  • Dental insurance plans do not necessarily cover all potential dental procedures, including cosmetic procedures and denture implants.

Before Scheduling an Appointment

It’s good to know all the details of your insurance plan so that we can help you see how much financial help you will receive from your insurance company. Treatment plans are specific to each individual, while dental insurance plans are not, which is what often causes the discrepancy between the treatment you need and your insurance coverage.

Easy Ways to Maximize Your Dental Coverage

Early detection of dental problems can prevent costly fixes in the future, which is why it is so important to have regular dental exams and cleanings. Dental insurance is designed to help you maintain your healthy smiles, and you can make the best of your coverage by scheduling regular dental appointments, check-ups and routine dental work. Our experienced and friendly team of dental experts at Bite Dental Works in Calgary are committed to improving your oral health.
