Dental insurance does not usually provide benefits for cosmetic treatment. ... Fixing a chip in a front tooth could be considered "cosmetic" and would be covered by dental insurance to a certain extent. Almost no procedure, with the exception of preventative care, is covered at 100% by dental insurance.
The typical dental insurance policy does not cover cosmetic work for the same reason the typical health insurance policy does not cover cosmetic work for the body - it is not considered a need. Even if such work was covered, there would be a waiting period before cosmetic procedures could be done. A person's best bet for finding affordable pricing for cosmetic dental work is through a dental discount plan. Discount plans are not insurance. The plans simply offer discounts at participating dentists for set procedures, including cosmetic. There are no waiting periods with discount plans, and no pre existing conditions to be concerned with.
