What Being In-Network With UnitedHealthcare Means for You
As an in-network UnitedHealthcare provider, we’ve agreed to UnitedHealthcare’s negotiated fees, so your costs are lower than at an out-of-network office and your benefits go further.

Our team verifies your specific plan, deductible, and annual maximum ahead of time and explains your estimated costs clearly before treatment begins.
What UnitedHealthcare Dental Plans Typically Cover
Most UnitedHealthcare dental plans are built around three tiers of care. Preventive services such as routine exams, cleanings, and x-rays are usually covered at the highest percentage, often with little or no out-of-pocket cost. Basic procedures like fillings and simple extractions are typically covered at a lower percentage, and major work such as crowns, bridges, or dentures at a lower percentage still. Plans generally include an annual maximum and a deductible, and amounts vary by plan.
