Aetna Dentist – Brooklyn, NY

Get the Most Out of Your Aetna Coverage

If you have a dental insurance plan from Aetna, you can consider yourself fortunate. It is a valuable asset that can allow you to enjoy low-cost preventive care, and it may reduce the financial burden of restorative procedures as well. But how can you get the most out of your Aetna coverage? Our Brooklyn, NY, team is eager to help. As an in-network Aetna dentist, we have all the knowledge necessary to maximize your benefits.

Aetna Coverage Availability & Fees

Happy senior dental patient looking over her shoulder?

Aetna offers multiple dental plans, each of which has its own set of fees and stipulations. It is important that you learn about the details of your unique policy so you can use it in an advantageous way. In the meantime, here is a general overview of some of the benefits that you might have from Aetna:

  • Preventive care: Services like checkups, cleanings, and bitewing X-rays are often 100% covered.
  • Basic services: Fillings, simple extractions, and emergency pain relief are between 50% and 80% covered (depending on your plan).
  • Major services: Root canal therapy, crowns, bridges, dentures, and other major procedures are up to 50% covered.

Your Aetna plan may also include a deductible, a waiting period before you are eligible for certain types of coverage, and an annual benefits limit. This annual maximum is usually between $1,000 and $1,250.

Because we are in-network with Aetna, we have a contract with them that manages fees. Therefore, you can expect to get more value out of your annual maximum than if you visited an out-of-network provider. We might even be able to strategically schedule some major treatments to allow you to use two annual maximums instead of only one.
