Understanding Your PPO Dental Coverage
A PPO dental plan connects you with a network of dentists who offer reduced rates, helping you save on the care you need. Here is a general breakdown of how PPO plans typically cover treatment costs:
- 100% covered – Preventive care such as dental exams and teeth cleanings
- 80% covered – Basic care such as dental fillings
- 50% covered – Major treatments such as crowns and dental bridges
Most plans carry an annual maximum between $1,000 and $2,000.

FAQs About Dental Insurance
Do you accept my insurance?
Yes! We accept most PPO dental insurance plans. Call (626) 788-9700 to confirm if your insurance plan is accepted at our dental office.
What if my insurance plan is not accepted?
We may not be in-network with every insurance plan, but we offer flexible financing options to help make your dental care affordable regardless of your coverage.
How long do insurance claims take to process?
Most insurance companies process claims within 15-60 days, and we are happy to file them on your behalf. Contact your insurance provider directly if payment is delayed beyond that timeframe.
What should I ask my insurance company?
Ask about your plan year dates, annual maximum, waiting periods, cleaning frequency coverage, and percentage coverage for preventive, basic, and major procedures.
How do I check my remaining benefits?
Contact your insurance company directly, and let us know of any dental work done elsewhere this year so we can track your benefits accurately.
Why is my bill different from the estimate?
Insurance can be unpredictable. Differences may stem from lower coverage, uncovered procedures, unmet deductibles, exceeded maximums, or insurance downgrades.
Why do I have out-of-pocket costs with insurance?
Dental insurance covers a percentage of treatment costs, not the full amount, and most plans have deductibles, annual maximums, and varying coverage levels.
Can you change the date on my procedure for better coverage?
No. Doing so constitutes insurance fraud, and we are committed to complete honesty in all billing practices.
My insurance changed. What should I do?
Contact us right away to update your insurance information so we can ensure accurate benefit estimates and seamless claim processing.
Do you accept Medicaid?
We do not currently accept Medicaid. Please call our office to discuss alternative payment and financing options available to you.
