Many people ask whether insurance covers dental implant work. Insurance coverage varies, but most plans provide benefits ranging from $1,000 to $3,000 annually. While this may help, it is often not enough to cover the full cost of comprehensive dental procedures.

For example, in Utah, the cost of a typical root canal is around $1,000 to $1,200, which can quickly exhaust annual insurance benefits. Dentures are often partially covered, but not to the extent that they cover the entire expense. High-quality dentures with dental implant support typically range from $5,000 to $15,000, depending on individual needs.

While this is a significant investment, consider the value it brings. A well-supported denture allows you to eat comfortably, enjoy your meals, and speak confidently without worrying about movement or discomfort. It enhances your quality of life by providing stability, function, and confidence, making it a worthwhile investment for many individuals.
