Guardian Coverage Availability & Fees
Whether you enrolled in your dental insurance plan through your employer or individually, you understand the importance and benefits of having this type of safety net. Your oral and overall health are intricately connected, which means it’s essential that you take the proper steps to care for your teeth and gums. Fortunately, as a policyholder with Guardian, your agreement to pay your monthly premium and annual deductible makes you eligible to receive access to a host of available benefits and specialists who can keep your smile looking and feeling its best.
No two Guardian policies are the same, but you can expect to see similar benefits, such as:
- 100% coverage for preventive care (i.e., dental checkups and cleanings, dental X-rays, oral cancer screenings, etc.)
- 70-80% coverage for minor restorative care (i.e., dental fillings)
- 50-70% coverage for major restorative care (i.e., root canal therapy, dentures)
Although your annual maximum is considered before your insurance company agrees to pay a portion of the total bill, you’ll be pleased to learn that at the end of the year, you may not lose all of your unused funds. In fact, they allow clients to transfer a portion from one year to the next, helping you to avoid losing valuable money at the end of the calendar year.
When determining your plan through Guardian, you will find it is in your best interest to opt for a dentist who is in-network. Why? Because you will save big when choosing a professional like Dr. Mitchell who partners with Guardian to set designated fees for various services. Although this is not mandatory, you’ll see you can save much more in the long run as opposed to someone whose insurance is out-of-network and pays more for the same services you receive.
