Employers can choose various options that affect overall plan costs. The most cost-effective plan may look like this:

An employee pays the first $250 of dental costs, whether it's to cover a cleaning or a crown.

After that, the plan covers 75 percent of the cost of any covered dental procedure, up to a higher-than-average $2,500 annual maximum benefit.3

Employee does not pay for preventive maintenance (generally two annual checkups and cleanings, annual X-rays and fluoride treatments for kids.)

Employee pays 20 percent of the cost for basic procedures such as fillings and root canals.

Employee pays 50 percent of the cost for major procedures such as crowns and bridges.
