At Green Insurance, we help individuals, couples, and families find coverage that fits their needs and their budget &#8212; with no complicated fine print.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Does Dental Insurance Cover?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most dental plans start with preventive care &#8212; things like cleanings, X-rays, and regular checkups &#8212; so you can stay on top of your oral health from day one. More involved procedures are typically covered after a waiting period, which is standard across the dental insurance industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Individual, Couple, or Family &#8212; Which Plan Fits You?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not everyone needs the same coverage. That&#8217;s why plans are available for individuals, couples, and families (including parent-plus-children options), with pricing that adjusts based on who&#8217;s covered. On average, dental plans start at around $50 per month, depending on the coverage you choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gi-stat-row\"><div class=\"gi-stat-card\"><div class=\"gi-stat-icon\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><rect x=\"3\" y=\"5\" width=\"18\" height=\"16\" rx=\"2\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"1.8\"\/><path d=\"M3 9h18M8 3v4M16 3v4\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"1.8\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/><\/svg><\/div><div class=\"gi-stat-text\"><div class=\"gi-stat-num\">12 Months<\/div><div class=\"gi-stat-label\">Typical waiting period for major procedures<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"gi-stat-card\"><div class=\"gi-stat-icon\"><svg width=\"18\" height=\"18\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M12 2l8 3v6c0 5-3.5 8.5-8 11-4.5-2.5-8-6-8-11V5l8-3z\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"1.8\"\/><path d=\"M12 7v10M9.5 9.5c0-1 1-1.8 2.5-1.8s2.5.8 2.5 1.8-1 1.5-2.5 1.8-2.5.8-2.5 1.8 1 1.8 2.5 1.8 2.5-.8 2.5-1.8\" stroke=\"#fff\" stroke-width=\"1.4\" stroke-linecap=\"round\"\/><\/svg><\/div><div class=\"gi-stat-text\"><div class=\"gi-stat-num\">$50+\/mo<\/div><div class=\"gi-stat-label\">Average starting cost for a dental plan<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Is a Waiting Period?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A waiting period is the time between when your policy starts and when certain benefits become available &#8212; commonly 12 months for many dental procedures. During this time, coverage usually begins with preventive care like cleanings, X-rays, and consultations, while more extensive procedures are typically covered once the waiting period is complete.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s a simple look at how it usually works:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"gi-cmp-wrap\"><table class=\"gi-cmp-table\"><thead><tr><th>Stage<\/th><th>What&#8217;s typically included<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>From day 1<\/td><td>Cleanings, X-rays, and routine consultations<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>After the waiting period (12 months)<\/td><td>More extensive procedures<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Much Does Dental Insurance Cost?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pricing depends on the type of plan &#8212; individual, couple, or family &#8212; but most Green Insurance dental plans start around $50 per month.
