What are frequency limitations? Are there limits for cleanings and exams?
• Frequency limitations are limitations on covered services. • Frequency of cleanings on our plans accommodate all members with two cleanings once every six months at no charge and others at a minimal co-pay. Exams are at no charge one every 6 months. For example, routine cleanings (D1110) are covered under some plans every 6 months. • If you go to the dentist for a cleaning before 6 months have elapsed from the last cleaning you received, due to the frequency limitation, you would be responsible to pay the dentist a co-payment for the additional cleaning. You can find additional cleaning co-pay amounts on your Schedule of Benefits.
