Yes, if the claim does not meet the secondary payor's eligibility rules; such as the patient being uninsured on the date of service.

Is it legal for a dental insurance company to deny coverage as a secondary provider?

Yes, it can be and no it may not be. You did not give enough information for a determination. Usually, the primary carrier pays their maximum, then the secondary carrier pays some or all of the portion of the procedure that is left BUT not more than the claim itself or more than they would have paid if their contract was primary. Here are some reasons why it could be legitimate to deny your claim. You could have hit the limits of the secondary policy. There could be a provision in the secondary policy that it does not cover the procedure that you had or that says it does not pay anything if it is secondary. The latter is somewhat unusual but worth checking for. Did you ask the carrier why they denied it? If they do not point to a specific provision in your contract, ask them to. If they do not, your state Insurance Department should have a consumer representative that you can ask for help in determining whether it was legitimate for them to deny coverage.

With Primary and Secondary Insurance your primary denied your claim because it was over a year is your secondary obligated to pay?

Yes, subject to the limits in their policy. No. With most insurance policies, there is what is called a timely filing limitation. For my company; contracted providers have 6 months, and non-contracted providers have 12 months to submit the claim. If your primary insurance received the claim within timely filing, you may have the option of submitting the claim to your secondary with proof that it was filed in a timely manner. If that doesn't work you can always appeal the decision with the secondary or for that matter the primary insurance company. Policy holders are not responsible for claims that deny for timely filing.

Can A payer cancel a patients policy or deny payment on a claim if the patient failed to disclose a preexisting condition?

The insurer could cancel a policy only if the patient had committed fraud on the application. This was part of the health reform law of 2010, limiting the insurer's ability to end a person's coverage. So, for example, if you had lied about being married to someone on your application for family coverage, they could cancel your policy. They can deny a claim, if it is for a service for a pre-existing condition AND you had a gap in your health coverage of at least 63 days before joining their plan. When the insurer gets a claim for an ongoing (chronic) illness like diabetes or depression in a new member's first month of coverage, they may deny the claim or notify you to send them proof of "creditable coverage." This is a form that you would request from your previous insurer. If you do not have a previous plan or you have been uninsured for more than 63 days, then they will deny the claim.
