The Best PPO Dental Insurance Plans Of 2020

The increasing cost of healthcare services today has made it vital for individuals to invest in an insurance policy that pays for both general consultation and medical emergencies. However, most insurance companies don’t include dental services in their policies. This is one of the reasons why you should also consider providers who offer standalone dental insurance that can pay for basic, preventive, and specialized orthodontic care.

The Best PPO Dental Insurance Plans Of 2020

Aetna, Cigna, and Humana are among the top insurance companies that offer a wide range of dental plans.

Aetna Dental® Insurance
Aetna Dental® Direct Plan is a prudent investment that offers good standalone coverage, meaning you don’t have to have Aetna medical or other coverage with the company necessarily to avail dental benefits. Moreover, it pays for the entire cost of your preventive treatment, including frequent checkups and routine procedures, under the PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) plans cover. You, thus, don’t have to worry about out of pocket expenses for the same. Aetna Dental® Direct has two exclusive PPO coverage plans:

  • Aetna Dental ® Direct Preferred PPO
    You pay a deductible of $50/person or $150/family to avail coverage under the preferred PPO plan. Also, for preventive treatment, you don’t incur any coinsurance costs. And under the plan, you can avail an annual maximum dental benefit of $1250 per person. Coverage is valid for cleanings and X-rays under preventive care; filings, extractions, and basic restorative work under basic care; and a few major services including crowns, dentures, root canals, and bridge work.
  • Aetna Dental ® Direct Core PPO
    Your deductibles and coinsurance for individual and family coverage remain the same under the core PPO plan. However, one of the key benefits is the low cost of premium for most services, unlike the preferred PPO, where only select services are affordable. The maximum annual benefit you can avail is limited to $1000 per person for preventive, basic, and major care.

Note that the type of services will vary depending on the state in which the coverage is available and the dentist providing services under the PPO plan. Prices may also vary.
