How come my dental insurance doesn’t cover all the costs of my treatment?

When it comes down to it, Dental insurance isn’t really like typical insurance (a payment to cover the cost of a loss) at all. You can think of it more as a prepaid spending card or a coupon to assist with your required dental care. It’s actually a monetary benefit typically provided by an employer to help their employees offset the cost of common dental treatment. Your employer usually buys a plan based on their budget, the costs per month and the benefits offered. Most plans are designed to only cover a portion of the total cost for the most common services.
