Guardian Dentist in Gainesville, GA

Understanding Your Guardian Dental Coverage

Guardian Dental Insurance provides a range of plans to help manage the cost of dental care, emphasizing preventive treatments to maintain optimal oral health:

• Preventive Care: Routine cleanings, exams, and X-rays are generally covered at no out-of-pocket cost, promoting proactive oral care.
• Basic Procedures: Treatments such as fillings and extractions often receive significant coverage at 70-80% under your plan.
• Major Services: Coverage for crowns, dentures, and other major services varies but helps in reducing serious costs of significant dental work.

It’s unlikely that dental implants or cosmetic dentistry will be covered, as these are still viewed as non-essential procedures. Although there are some stipulations and exceptions your insurer might make, you’ll likely need to find an alternative way to pay for these types of services.

The good news is that based on the benefits listed above, you can worry less about the cost of an upcoming root canal, dental crown or tooth extraction. As long as you’ve met your deductible, your insurance company will pay more for treatment. This is one of the unique benefits of choosing an in-network dentist like Lifetime Dental.

Our contract with Guardian allows us to establish various fees for services that you might require throughout the year. Instead of being required to pay the full amount upfront, you will only pay a portion – what the insurance company will not cover. This leads to greater savings and a healthier smile.
