Need help understanding how to find a dentist in Florida by insurance?

If, like millions of other Americans, you have dental insurance, you’ve probably asked around for help finding a “dentist near me who accepts my insurance.” If you still need to find a dentist that takes insurance, look no further. We’re a preferred provider with many insurance companies and can help you with your search. Dental insurance plans are very complex and can be confusing. Two people can receive the same procedure from the same dentist but pay different rates. Although this is due to the individual rate negotiated by the provider, it can be very confusing. We’re familiar with the intricacies of insurance plans and are happy to provide claims billing to our patients. Be aware, though, that even if you have great dental insurance, you are still responsible for payment of all costs incurred at your dentist’s office.

How to use my dental insurance with a dentist in Florida

In order for you to get the maximum dental benefit out of your plan, you need to find a dentist who takes your type of insurance. Whether you need a dentist that accepts HMO insurance or a dentist that accepts PPO insurance, we can answer your questions. Call Dental Associates of Florida at to learn more about how to find a dentist in Florida by insurance.

Is dental insurance plan education a priority?

Even though we can answer many or most of your questions, the best resource for answers is your dental insurance provider. The following questions may help you determine the scope of your dental insurance plan.

• Are missing teeth covered?
• Is Invisalign® covered?
• Are orthodontic and cosmetic procedures covered?
• Are there annual limits?
• Are implants covered?
• Is there a prescription coverage?
• Are there exclusions?
• What about pre-authorizations?
• Which dentist takes my insurance?

If your plan is a PPO, you’ll probably pay higher monthly premiums but have a larger base of participating dentists. If your plan is an HMO, you’ll have lower monthly premiums but a smaller base of participating dentists. Both types of insurance plans usually have a copay for office visits.
