When considering dentures, many patients wonder, “Will my insurance cover the cost of dentures?”
It’s a common question and understandably so, given the cost of dentures, which can range from a few hundred to several thousand dollars. At Centers for Dental Implants, we believe in helping patients navigate their options, ensuring they have access to the care they need, without unnecessary financial stress.
In this blog, we’ll cover:
Most dental insurance plans do offer coverage for dentures, but the extent of the coverage can vary significantly depending on the plan. In general, insurance will cover part of the cost of traditional dentures, but there are often limitations or exclusions based on factors like:
It’s important to check with your insurance provider to understand what is covered, including whether procedures like tooth extractions, bone grafts, or post-placement care are included.
Dental insurance plans often cover the basics, but the specifics can vary. Here’s what you can typically expect to be covered:
Traditional full and partial dentures are covered by insurance, but coverage may be partial, with the patient responsible for the difference in cost. Depending on your plan’s specifics, most plans will cover anywhere from 50% to 80% of the cost.
Implant-supported dentures are more expensive and are often not fully covered by standard dental insurance. In some cases, insurance may cover the cost of the implant procedure, but the cost of the denture restoration might need to be paid out of pocket.
If tooth extraction or bone grafting is necessary before placing dentures, some dental insurance plans will help cover the cost, but the extent of coverage can vary.
