Full Mouth Reconstruction
Full mouth reconstruction is a complex treatment that may involve multiple procedures. For this reason, insurance coverage varies significantly depending on your specific plan and the treatments included in your reconstruction.
How Insurance Typically Works
While Shank Dental Care is out-of-network with all insurance plans, we generally file claims on your behalf and accept payment from most insurance companies. Some plans pay the patient directly, in which case you would receive reimbursement after your appointment.
Full mouth reconstruction often includes a combination of restorative procedures, including crowns, implants, periodontal treatment, and bite adjustments. Your insurance may cover portions of the treatment depending on your plan's annual maximums and coverage levels. However, insurance typically doesn't cover the full cost of comprehensive reconstruction.
Payment Options at Shank Dental Care
We offer several options to make treatment more accessible:
- In-house membership plan — Annual plan for $379 that provides benefits for preventive and restorative care
- Installment payment plans — Flexible payment arrangements tailored to your budget
- CareCredit — Healthcare financing with various payment plan options
- HSA payments — We accept payments from Health Savings Accounts
During your consultation, our team will provide a detailed treatment plan and discuss all available payment options. Then you can make an informed decision about moving forward with your reconstruction.
