Learn More About the Benefits of Aetna
If you have an Aetna dental insurance plan, you can view it as a valuable asset. Not only can it allow you to enjoy basic care at a low price, but it may also provide precious financial help for those times when your smile needs a bit of restorative treatment. But how can you get the most out of your benefits? Our Temple, TX, team is proud to be an in-network Aetna dentist. You can rely on us to help you maximize your coverage and minimize your out-of-pocket costs!
Aetna Coverage Availability & Fees
Aetna offers a number of different dental plans, so it is important that you take a bit of time to familiarize yourself with your unique policy. In the meantime, you may be able to gain a basic understanding of your coverage by reviewing the information below:
- Aetna plans usually cover 100% of the cost of preventive care, such as cleanings and exams.
- Basic services, including fillings and emergency pain relief, tend to be up to 80% covered.
- If you require major services, such as root canal therapy or dentures, your plan might cover up to 50% of the cost of your care. (Some Aetna plans do not cover major services at all.)
It is also important to keep in mind that your plan may come with a deductible, a waiting period before you can receive coverage for certain services, and an annual maximum. Usually, the maximum is in the neighborhood of $1,000. (The Aetna Dental Direct Preferred PPO has a slightly higher maximum of $1,250.)
Because we are in-network with Aetna, we are in the perfect position to help you maximize your benefits. In some cases, we are even able to split up major treatments across calendar years to allow patients to utilize two annual maximums rather than one.
