ANTHEM OPTIONAL DENTAL INSURANCE
You may choose optional employer-sponsored dental insurance administered by Anthem. Dental benefits not only protect your teeth, but also can support overall health. Some conditions like heart disease can have warning signs in the mouth and gums.** Our dental plan gives you all the benefits you need for a healthy mouth and more.
Your dental plan includes:
Access to a large number of dentists in the plan;
An extra cleaning if you’re pregnant, have diabetes, or another qualifying condition;
A benefit for a brush biopsy that can help diagnose oral cancer;
No out-of-pocket costs for cleanings, X-rays, and other preventive care services when you see a dentist in the plan; and
Easy-to-use online tools, including a Dental Health Assessment, Dental Cost Estimator, and Ask a Dental Hygienist.
Teledentistry, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. Using technology and telecommunications, employees can get dental care remotely, without the need to go to a dentist’s office.
Orthodontic benefits now include at-home clear aligners - Ortho@Home - providing a simple, more budget-friendly option in the Gold plan for children up to age 18.
