Medicare Dental Coverage in Garland, TX

Medicare Dental Coverage in Garland, TX

Care N Cure Dental accepts Medicare Advantage plans that include dental benefits. Original Medicare (Parts A and B) does not pay for most routine dental care, but many Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans include dental coverage for checkups, cleanings, X-rays and often fillings, crowns, extractions and dentures. Our Garland, TX team will check your plan’s dental benefits before your visit.

Does Original Medicare cover dental care?

Original Medicare does not cover routine dental care such as exams, cleanings, X-rays, fillings, extractions, root canals or dentures. It covers dental services only in limited situations connected to other medical care, such as jaw fracture surgery or a dental exam needed before certain treatments like an organ transplant or heart valve replacement.

What Medicare Advantage dental plans usually cover

  • Preventive care: exams, cleanings and X-rays, often with no copay
  • Basic care: fillings and simple extractions
  • Major care: crowns, root canals, dentures and sometimes implants, usually with a copay or coinsurance
  • Annual maximum: most plans have a yearly dollar limit on dental benefits

Every plan is different. Some require in-network dentists or prior approval for major work, so we always verify your benefits first.
