Can the Health Insurance cover the cost of dental treatment in full?
The Health Insurance covers all required dental treatment. The commonly held idea that the Health Insurance does not sufficiently cover dental treatment is not based in fact.
Metals used in dental treatment range from relatively inexpensive ones (such as palladium alloy) to extremely costly ones (such as gold and platinum). The Health Insurance covers the cost of all materials that are indispensable for dental treatment. The Health Insurance allows you to receive adequate dental treatment with little outlay.
You must request "treatment within the limits of the Health Insurance " clearly to your dentist when you want the Health Insurance to cover the entire bill.
