Can insurance cover dental expenses? How to buy insurance when going to the hospital to treat teeth?
Dental treatment can be divided into several categories, among which tooth washing is a routine health care treatment, common tooth extraction and filling are basic treatments, tooth restoration and orthodontic treatment are more complicated, and traumatic suture is an accidental treatment. The cost of different types of treatment projects varies greatly, ranging from millions to tens of thousands, and the treatment cost may be higher. The medical expenses of different medical institutions vary greatly, and the private clinics with better conditions cost even more. At present, insurance can be reimbursed in the following ways:

In some areas of social security, oral examination and treatment are medical insurance items, as are tooth extraction and oral surgery, but tooth cleaning, oral restoration and orthodontics are not. Social security reimbursement items may be different in different regions, subject to local regulations. It can be seen that dental treatment belongs to the basic disease insurance and can be reimbursed, but dental beauty cannot be reimbursed.

Accident medical insurance According to the standard of accidental disability, if the tooth loss caused by accident is greater than or equal to the first-class disability, you can get compensation from accident disability insurance. If it is accidental medical treatment, it is only for the treatment of accidental tooth injury, and dental restoration and plastic surgery are exempt. However, due to the low level of dental health in China, the risk is too great, so the treatment of dental diseases is generally included in the exclusion of medical insurance.
