I just returned from my dentist visit here in Arkansas. He said BC/BS is now finally paying a portion of implants. Just a few months ago they were not. My dentist said they are finally understanding that implants are more beneficial to the insurance companies than having to pay over and over for temp. partials.

Blue Cross offers multiple dental insurance plans. These range from the Dental Blue 100, which offers minimal coverage but is fairly cheap, to the Dental Select HMO, which covers everything for a higher price. Thus, the benefits of Blue Cross dental insurance can vary, but one may choose the cost and level of coverage they feel is appropriate.
