Why is there no medical insurance coverage when a person is having a dental implant surgical operation. do you know of any medical coverage for this?

Dental Insurance: Some dental policies cover dental implants. There is no medical coverage for them since dental procedures are typically excluded

GOOD LUCK: Most dental plans do not pay for implants unless you are replacing a tooth removed while covered. Even then there may be a few. I never billed medical insurance for a dental implant so I can't help you there.
