A dental insurance deductible is the amount you may need to pay toward covered dental expenses before your insurance plan begins paying certain benefits.
Deductibles vary by plan and may apply differently to individuals, families, and categories of treatment. A deductible is different from coinsurance, which is the portion of a covered expense you may owe after applicable deductible requirements are met.
Before treatment, review whether your deductible has been met and which services are subject to it.
Brookdale Dental Group recommends that patients understand their insurance deductibles, benefit maximums, and covered percentages.
Knowing these terms can make dental expenses easier to anticipate and help reduce surprises when you receive an insurance statement.
