Learn More About Your United Healthcare Benefits

UnitedHealthcare Coverage Availability & Fees

UnitedHealthcare offers plans with different benefits and requirements. When enrolling, you may notice that your monthly premium, deductible, and annual maximum are different from those of others. This is why it’s important to choose a plan that meets your needs.

However, choosing an in-network dentist often means similar coverage for preventive and restorative care. It can look something like the following:

  • 100% coverage for preventive services, including dental exams, dental cleanings, X-rays, etc.
  • 80% coverage for basic restorative services, including dental fillings or simple extractions.
  • 50% coverage for major restorative services, including dental crowns, dentures, etc.

If you or a family member needs orthodontic care, you will need to review your plan to see if coverage is available. If not, you may need to purchase a supplemental policy to reduce any out-of-pocket expenses.

This kind of savings can make a difference when justifying the cost of certain dental treatments. Although you should never disregard oral healthcare because of the price, we understand it can be a primary factor in deciding whether to move forward.

Dr. Kim and our team will always do our best to maximize your available benefits, so you avoid paying more for the services you receive.

The Benefits of Seeing an In-Network Dentist

  • Our team will help streamline the billing process by taking care of filing the necessary paperwork and claims forms so you don’t have to.
  • Dentists are held to a high standard because of the expectations set forth by the dental insurance company.
  • You can expect predictable cost estimates when entrusting your smile to our team.
