Your Trusted Ameritas Dentist in Tallahassee

About Your Ameritas Coverage

When you come into Boyd & Walther Dental Associates, we will start out by checking on what you are eligible for under your plan. This process is known as a “verification of benefits.” Then, based on your coverage and your oral health needs, we can put together a strategic approach to help stretch your benefits to the maximum.

You will find all the services you are eligible for through Ameritas right here in our modern dental office. Preventive treatments are fully covered, and we place a heavy emphasis on prevention. You can benefit from two free checkups and cleanings per year as well as additional treatments like dental sealants, fluoride treatments, and others as needed. If you require restorative care, like fillings, crowns or extractions, you can expect these to be covered from 50% to 80%. Our team of experts is always on hand to discuss your coverage to ensure you know just what you are eligible for.

It may vary slightly based on how much you pay as a premium or the monthly fee you owe for insurance coverage, but your Ameritas plan should look something like this:

• Preventive care: 100% covered
• Basic restorative treatments: 80% covered (tooth-colored fillings, simple extractions)
• Complex restorative treatments: 50% covered (crown and bridge, complex extractions)
• Cosmetic and other elective treatments: 0% covered

While we will always work to help you make the most out of your insurance plan, we always work based on the best interest of your oral health -- regardless of coverage.
