Typically, cosmetic treatments are not covered by dental insurance because cosmetic dentistry is elective rather than restorative.
An elective treatment is something you undergo by choice. A restorative treatment is strongly recommended by your dentist for your ongoing dental health.
In some cases, a restorative treatment can also be cosmetic. For example, a dental crown saves a tooth while also hiding the damage. A tooth-colored filling treats decay without silver amalgam.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Veneers?
No, dental insurance does not typically cover veneers, which are cosmetic restorations cemented to the front-facing teeth. However, they may cover crowns if tooth damage causes a functional concern.
