Dental crowns are a versatile and durable solution for restoring damaged or weakened teeth. At Palatine Complete Dental, Dr. Michael Unti uses custom-crafted crowns to strengthen, protect, and improve the appearance of your smile. A common question our patients ask us before treatment is: Are dental crowns covered by insurance?
So, Does Dental Insurance Cover Crowns?
In most cases, dental insurance at least partially covers crowns. This typically depends on the specifics of your plan and the reason for your treatment. If the crown is considered medically necessary, like when restoring a tooth after a root canal, protecting a broken tooth, or replacing a large filling, your insurance typically covers a portion (usually 40–80%) of the cost. Your annual maximum, deductible, and waiting periods may also affect your out-of-pocket expenses. Additionally, if your reason for getting a crown is primarily (or purely) cosmetic, coverage may be limited or unavailable.
If you have questions specific to your case, our friendly team here at Palatine Complete Dental is happy to review your benefits, discuss your options before treatment begins, and submit claims on your behalf!
