Dental Benefit

More smiles than Original Medicare

Original Medicare doesn’t offer a routine dental benefit. All Peoples Health Medicare Advantage plans include coverage for routine dental services, including oral exams and cleanings. Most plans also include comprehensive care, such as fillings and dentures. Other plans offer these services only through an optional Platinum Dental Rider for a monthly premium.

What’s included?

All Peoples Health plans include a dental benefit provided by UnitedHealthcare Dental that covers preventive and diagnostic dental care, such as exams, routine cleanings, X-rays and fluoride, for a $0 copay.

Most plans also cover many comprehensive services at a $0 copay, including root canals and extractions, as well as modification and adjustments to dentures and bridges, up to an annual coverage maximum amount when using network providers.* A 50% coinsurance may apply for dentures and bridges (coinsurance applies to the actual dentures and bridges, not to modifications and adjustments for existing dentures or bridges).

Some plans only cover comprehensive dental services through an optional Platinum Dental Rider for a monthly premium.

All Peoples Health plans offer both in-network and out-of-network dental coverage, although services received out-of-network may have a higher member cost.

Finding a Dentist

Peoples Health plan members have access to the UnitedHealthcare Dental network.

To find a provider, visit your member website or use the Dental Providers search tool.

*Maximum benefit amount varies by plan. See a plan’s Evidence of Coverage for more information, including to see if the plan offers the optional Platinum Dental Rider.

Benefits, features and/or devices may vary by plan/area. Limitations, exclusions and/or network restrictions may apply. If your plan offers out-of-network dental coverage and you see an out-of-network dentist, you might be billed more.
