What do my dental benefits cover?

Dental benefits differ greatly from traditional medical health insurance benefits and can vary quite a bit from plan to plan. When dental plans first appeared in the early 1970’s, most plans had a yearly maximum of $1000.00 per person. Today most plans still have an annual maximum of $1000.00 per person. Yet dental premiums have risen due to time and the inflation rate. Your dental premiums have increased, but your benefits have not, therefore, dental coverage is never a pay-all, it is only an aid.
