At Richardson Orthodontics, we are proud to work directly with Principal to ensure that you are paying the lowest cost for your treatment. Read on to learn more about Principal and how it works.

Principal Coverage Availabilities & Fees

Dental insurance form

When it comes to orthodontic coverage, every insurance plan is different. If you know that you or your child needs orthodontic treatment, it is important to select a plan that offers coverage for orthodontic treatment. This way, you won’t be left paying for everything out of pocket or putting off treatment into the future. Here is what coverage in a typical plan looks like:

  • 100% coverage on preventive care. This includes your regular cleanings and checkups with your general dentist.
  • 80% coverage on basic restorative procedures. This includes dental fillings, sealants, and other treatments from your general dentist.
  • 50% coverage on major restorative procedures. This includes things like periodontics, oral surgery, dental crowns, and endodontics.

Orthodontia falls into its own category. It is not typically included in a traditional dental policy, but it can be added with its own coinsurance and lifetime maximum benefits.
