Some plans do. In fact, more and more dental insurance plans are offering some sort of coverage, even it it's just a percentage. For those plans that do offer implant coverage, be sure to check the fine print. If the implant is replacing a congenital missing tooth, the insurance company may not cover it because it's considered a birth defect. Be sure to do your homework.

Are there any health insurance companies that cover dental implants since dental insurance considers it a cosmetic procedure?
To find companies in your state that provide dental insurance or dental discount plans, go to the National Association of Dental Plans site (www.nadp.org) which has a directory of companies that offer dental insurance. The directory can be searched by state and you can select "individual" and get the list of just those companies that provide individual dental insurance in your state. The listing also tells you if the company provides dental HMO, dental PPO, dental indemnity (traditional insurance without a network) or a discount plan (not insurance but a discount off the dentist's fees who are part of the discount network).* Unlike most dental procedures, you can expect to pay 100% of the cost of a cosmetic procedure out of your own pocket. Your dental insurance company will typically not pay for purely cosmetic procedures. Usually, insurance only covers the costs of procedures required for a functional purpose. In cases where there is both a functional and cosmetic need for a procedure, e.g. crowns that protect and improve the appearance of your teeth, and insurance companies typically only covers the amount required to protect the tooth. * Your best bet it to shop around for the best prices for implants. * Actually, more dental plans are adding coverage for implants as an alternate to a bridge or for a single tooth space. A 2008 report by the National Association of Dental Plans found that most Dental PPO and Dental Indemnity Plans of the reporting companies either include implants in standard coverage or offer it as an added benefit. Health insurance companies generally do not provide coverage of dental procedures except for oral surgery that results from an accident or injury.

With a Dental plan you pay the bill but get a very discounted price, up to 80%. At the time of your dental visit the insurance will cost you less but a dental plan does have several advantages 1. Where dental insurance for a family can cost over $100 a month there are dental plans that will include the same family for less than $20 a month. 2. Dental insurance has limits on the annual benefit (usually around $1000) After that point you pay 100% out of your own pocket. A dental plan will never run out and you will get the same discount regaurdless of how high the bill gets. 3. If you need immediate care dental insurance has a waiting period where a dental plan does not.
