Are implants covered by dental or medical insurance?
When it comes to dental insurance, most plans choose to cover the cheapest alternative in dental treatment, which means they will usually cover a denture, not implants. However, your carrier may cover certain portions in the dental implant process. Medical insurance may cover implants as the result of work-related injuries and other types of accidents or if you’re missing all your teeth and experience medical complications.
