All About Dental Reimbursement and How it Works

A dental treatment can be an expensive service. Its cost may vary depending on the level of difficulty or the expected effect of the method used. Basic treatments like extraction and filling are among the least expensive, next to preventive dental exams. Unfortunately, many still find the prices steep and thus refuse to get professional treatment.

Fortunately, there is such a thing as direct dental reimbursement. This is an innovative solution to helping employees get discounts or reimburse cash when they get certain dental treatments as a form of self-funding benefit. It gives the employees the freedom to choose the dentist they want, especially if these dentists aren't among those authorized to provide services through their company-funded dental benefits.

Direct dental reimbursement is popular for its simplicity. It comes with a set of dental plans allowing clients to choose their dentists, pay their bills, and get their reimbursements. Usually, the payment for the benefits are assigned directly to the client's chosen dental office, making it easier to receive.


Unlike traditional dental plans that are based on the type of treatment received, direct dental reimbursement is based on dollar expenditures. Meaning, the client doesn't have to look for dental offices that provide the treatment he needs least or more expensively to get a favorable reimbursement. Clients can also expect very few limitations on the benefits they will receive.
