Is oral surgery covered by dental insurance?
Coverage for oral surgery by dental insurance can vary widely depending on your specific policy and the nature of the procedure.
Many insurance plans cover a portion of oral surgery costs, especially if the procedure is deemed medically necessary, such as tooth extractions, certain types of jaw surgeries, and treatments for oral diseases. However, cosmetic procedures may not be covered. It’s important to consult with your insurance provider to understand the specifics of your coverage.
