Does Medicare Cover Dental Implants

Original Medicare does not have wide coverage for dental treatment but if you experience excess pain in your jaw and complication from a full mouth dental implant surgery, Original Medicare will cover those costs.

Further, if complications arise during your initial consultations and your dentist deems it necessary to perform the procedure in an inpatient setting, Medicare Part A will cover the hospital and sedation dentistry expenses.

Medicare Advantage Coverage for Dental Implants

The most coverage for dental implants you will find with Medicare comes from Medicare Advantage plans. Some Medicare Advantage plans provide dental benefits for policyholders which can include coverage for dental implants.

To receive this extra benefit, you may pay a higher monthly premium. However, you will need to keep in mind the maximum dental benefit. Medicare Advantage plans almost always require copayments and deductibles for dental services. On most plans, you will be responsible for 100% of the cost after you meet the plan’s maximum benefit.

When choosing a Medicare Advantage plan to cover dental implants, you want to first be sure your plan offers dental coverage. Secondly, ensure the plan covers dental implants as well. Some Medicare Advantage plans with dental coverage explicitly exclude dental implant coverage. To verify coverage eligibility, you will need to review the plan’s Evidence of Coverage.

Medicare Supplement Coverage for Dental Implants

Medicare Supplement plans do not provide the patient with dental coverage. Thus, Medicare Supplement plans do not cover dental implants. However, like original Medicare, if your oral surgery and dental implants procedure occurs in an inpatient setting or additional health issues arise due to dental implants, your Medicare Supplement plan will cover those related costs including sedation dentistry and general anesthesia.

Keep in mind, Medicare Supplement plans only pay secondary to Medicare. So, if Medicare does not pay first, your Medicare Supplement plan may not cover any costs.

Best Medicare insurance for dental

The best Medicare dental plans will depend on your needs. Original Medicare doesn’t cover routine dental services, such as cleanings, fillings and extractions. For dental coverage, seniors on Medicare can buy a separate policy or turn to Medicare Advantage plans, most of which offer some form of cost help for dental care.

Medicare Advantage plans are a bundled alternative to Original Medicare, sold by private insurers. They include Medicare Part A (hospital coverage) and Part B (medical insurance) and usually Part D (prescription drug benefits). These plans charge a monthly premium or (frequently) no premium, and they often include extra benefits such as some coverage for hearing and vision care
