Types of Medicare Dental Coverage
There are different types of Medicare dental coverage. They include:
- Dental Coverage With Original Medicare: Original Medicare which is majorly Part A and Part B Medicare helps to cover dental services you receive while you were hospitalized for another condition. For example, they can cover a jaw reconstruction surgery you need after an injury to the face.
- Dental Coverage With Medicare Advantage: Medicare Advantage [3] plans help to cover dental services which are not covered by original Medicare. Not all Medicare Advantage plans cover dental services. Before you get enrolled into Medicare Advantage plans, ensure that the plan you choose to have covered the dental care you need.
- Dental Coverage With Medicare Supplements: Medicare Supplements do not cover any dental services you might need. However, they help to cover any extra expenses not covered by original Medicare.
