Aetna Dentist Midlothian
Learn More About the Benefits of Aetna
Do you have an Aetna dental insurance plan? You should view your policy as an important asset! It can allow you to enjoy low-cost preventive care, and it may reduce your out-of-pocket obligation for restorative procedures as well. But how can you get the most out of your benefits? Our Midlothian dental team is ready to assist you. As an in-network Aetna dentist, we are familiar with the ins and outs of how your plan works, and we can make the process of using it as easy and stress-free as possible!
Aetna Coverage Availability & Fees
Aetna offers a number of different dental plans, so it is important that you learn about the details of your unique policy to find out how it works. In the meantime, here is a general overview of the PPO coverage that is common among Aetna plans:
- Preventive care, including cleanings, checkups, and routine bitewing X-rays, is usually 100% covered.
- Minor services, such as fillings, simple extractions, and emergency pain relief, may be 50% covered or 80% covered (depending on which plan you choose).
- Major services, encompassing such things as root canal therapy, crowns, dentures, and bridges, may be up to 50% covered. (Some Aetna plans do not provide coverage for major services.)
Your policy may also have a deductible, a waiting period before you can use your benefits for certain services, and an annual maximum that places a limit on how much Aetna will pay for approved services within a calendar year.
Because our practice is in-network with Aetna, we are in an ideal position to help you maximize your benefits. Out-of-pocket expenses are usually lowest at in-network practices. Plus, we may be able to strategically schedule major treatments across calendar years so you can use two annual maximums instead of just one.
