Can I use my Delta Dental coverage for cosmetic dentistry procedures?

Delta Dental coverage typically does not extend to cosmetic dentistry procedures. Cosmetic dentistry is generally considered elective and not medically necessary, which means that it may not be covered under standard dental insurance plans offered by Delta Dental. Common cosmetic procedures, such as teeth whitening, veneers, and some smile makeovers, usually fall outside the range of services eligible for coverage. However, there may be instances where a procedure that has cosmetic aspects could also be deemed necessary for oral health, and in such cases, some coverage could be available. Each situation is unique, and benefits can vary depending on the specific Delta Dental plan a member holds. It is essential to carefully review the terms and conditions of the dental plan to understand what procedures are covered. Members may also want to check the details on the specific dental plan provided through their employer or purchased independently, as Delta Dental has a variety of plans that may offer differing coverage options. For specific questions about coverage for particular procedures, consulting the customer service section of Delta Dental's website may provide more tailored information and guidance.
