Financing & Insurance

Quality dental care should fit your budget. We accept most major insurance plans and offer flexible financing options to make your treatment affordable.

How Cigna Dental Coverage Works

Cigna dental plans categorize benefits using coverage tiers that prioritize preventive care. This means most Cigna plans have the following structure that provides the highest coverage for preventive services and graduated coverage for more complex treatments:

Full Coverage for Preventative Care

Most plans cover 100% of preventative services, such as dental cleanings, oral examinations, and diagnostic X-rays when you visit an in-network dentist. Fluoride treatments and dental sealants for eligible patients are typically fully covered.

Moderate Coverage for Restorative Treatments

Basic restorative services treat common dental problems that develop despite good preventive care. Cigna plans typically cover dental fillings, simple extractions, and initial periodontal treatments at 70 to 80 percent after you meet your deductible.

Less Coverage for Major Procedures

Major services address significant dental needs requiring more complex treatment. Coverage for procedures like crowns, bridges, and dentures typically ranges from 50 to 60 percent. Some Cigna plans include waiting periods before major service coverage begins.

Why Should You Choose a Cigna Network Dentist?

Choosing an in-network Cigna provider like Beechnut Dental Care offers meaningful advantages. Our practice accepts Cigna’s negotiated fee schedule, which keeps your costs predictable and typically lower than out-of-network rates. You benefit from contracted pricing without concerns about balance billing for the difference between standard and allowed fees.

 

Electronic claims submission simplifies the insurance process when you visit an in-network provider. Our office files claims directly with Cigna after each appointment, reducing paperwork and processing delays. We also handle pre-treatment estimates for major procedures, giving you clear financial expectations before committing to care.

How Advanced Technology Enhances Your Care

Beechnut Dental Care combines insurance acceptance with state-of-the-art dental technology. Our CEREC same-day crown system creates precise, custom dental crowns in a single visit using computer-aided design and milling technology. Cigna patients benefit from completing restorative treatment efficiently without temporary crowns or multiple appointments.


Solea laser technology allows many procedures to be performed without anesthesia, improving comfort and reducing treatment time. Our CBCT digital cone beam scanner provides detailed three-dimensional imaging essential for accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. This advanced imaging proves particularly valuable for dental implants and complex oral surgery procedures.

Getting the Most From Your Cigna Benefits

Cigna dental plans typically include an annual maximum benefit that caps yearly coverage. Most maximums range from $1,000 to $2,500, though specific amounts vary by plan. Understanding your maximum helps you plan treatment strategically throughout the year. Benefits reset each calendar year, and unused amounts do not carry over, making it important to schedule recommended treatment before December 31.

Preventive visits are a smart use of benefits because they protect your oral health while using minimal benefits. Regular cleanings and exams help identify problems early when treatment is less extensive and more affordable. Our team monitors your remaining benefits throughout the year and can advise on treatment timing to maximize your coverage.

If you need major dental work, we can often develop phased treatment plans that spread procedures across two calendar years. This approach may allow you to access benefits from both years for comprehensive treatment that exceeds a single year’s maximum.
