Dental insurance in the USA is a type of health insurance that provides coverage for certain dental care services, such as regular check-ups, cleanings, fillings, and root canals. Dental insurance plans can be obtained through employers, private insurance companies, or government programs such as Medicaid. Depending on the plan, dental insurance may cover a portion or all of the cost of the covered services, with the insured person paying a monthly premium and, in some cases, a deductible and/or coinsurance. Many plans also have limitations on the amount of coverage provided for certain procedures or a waiting period before certain services are covered. It is important for individuals to carefully review the terms and coverage of their dental insurance plan to ensure they understand what services are covered and what costs they may be responsible for.
