What Is Tricare Dental Insurance?

Tricare is a dental insurance plan available through the federal government. It provides coverage for dental services with a cost-share percentage. The cost-share percentage is the total cost for a dental service that you pay. The cost-share percentage will vary based on the type of dental service. Covered dental services can include:

  • Preventative care
  • Diagnostic care
  • Basic restorative care
  • Orthodontics

To maximize the dental insurance benefits available through Tricare, you need to see an in-network Houston dentist at URBN Dental. While you can see an out-of-network dentist, you will pay more for your cost-share and will need to file your insurance claim for reimbursement yourself.

Who Is Eligible For Tricare Dental Insurance?

Tricare dental insurance has certain eligibility requirements and provides coverage for the following: 

  • Active-duty spouses and family members
  • National Guard and Reserve members and their family members
  • Individual Ready Reserve members and their family members 

Active duty members of the military, veterans, and veteran family members qualify for dental benefits through other plans. You can confirm your eligibility for Tricare through the DEERS (Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System) website. If you are eligible for Tricare, you must also ensure you have enrolled for coverage. 

Benefits Of A Tricare Dental Insurance Plan

Tricare dental insurance plans provide several benefits, including:

  • Comprehensive preventive coverage: Routine cleanings, X-rays, and dental exams are fully covered.
  • Easy to find a dentist: There is a large selection of in-network dentists to choose from, making it easy to find a dentist in your area.
  • Family coverage: Spouses and dependents can qualify for coverage under the same dental insurance plan. 
  • Lower costs: Thanks to pre-negotiated rates with in-network dentists, out-of-pocket costs are lower than with other dental insurance plans. 
  • Easy to switch providers: You can easily switch from one in-network dentist to another without any loss of benefits.
  • No or low deductibles: Many Tricare dental insurance plans have no deductibles, while others have low deductibles.

FAQ

There is a short waiting period, depending on when you enroll for coverage. If you enroll on or before the 20th of the month, your dental coverage begins on the 1st of the following month. For example, if you enroll on March 19, your benefits will start on April 1. 

If you enroll after the 20th of the month, your benefits will start on the 1st of the second month. For example, if you enroll on June 30, your benefits will begin on August 1.

Some people may have dental insurance through their employer and are also eligible for Tricare. You can have other dental insurance and Tricare coverage. Your primary dental insurance would be the other dental insurance you have, and Tricare would be your supplemental or secondary dental coverage, which can help to cover out-of-pocket costs.

Adult orthodontic braces, like Invisalign, are usually considered cosmetic procedures and are not covered by Tricare, except when you are under the age of 23 or it is medically necessary for you to get braces. At URBN Dental, we offer flexible financing options with low monthly payments to cover the costs of non-covered cosmetic procedures.
