DrDental Insurance and getting dental bridges.
What you should know before buying dental insurance in order to have dental bridge or partial. Whenever possible do not pull out teeth prior to buying dental insurance. This is because many dental insurance plans have missing teeth clauses. Meaning that if the teeth were missing prior to the plan effective date they will not cover for a new bridge or partial to be put in.
Some dental insurance plan will replace bridges, partials and denture but only after you had your old one in for five or more years. (Therefore they will normally ask for proof. )
If you have current missing teeth it does not mean you can not find dental insurance to help you fix your smile. Just read the terms and conditions carefully. Make sure the dental insurance plan you are buying is going to cover for the dental services you want.
I also suggest not to rule out dental discount plans. With dental discount plan preexisting is not excluded including missing teeth. So for a low monthly cost of a dental discount plan you can have some saving off getting a dental bridge without any waiting periods or exclusions.
