What is covered of wisdom-teeth removal (oral surgery)?
Depending upon your plan's benefits, Oral surgery can fall under the Preventive, Basic, or Major category. Please refer to your certificate booklet. A pre-operative x-ray film is required in order to review a surgical extraction because benefits are subject to our consultant's review. Obtaining a pretreatment estimate is recommended for all dental work that you consider to be expensive. The estimate helps to eliminate misunderstandings by letting you know beforehand how much the plan can cover. We do suggest submitting your oral surgery claim to your medical plan first as some medical plans have benefits for surgical extractions as well as general anesthesia or IV sedation.
