Ameritas Dentist in Boca Raton, FL

Do you see patients with Ameritas dental insurance?

Yes. Boca Dental Arts welcomes patients with Ameritas PPO dental plans. Ameritas is a common carrier for small businesses and for people who buy dental insurance on their own, including self-employed professionals and early retirees. Patients from Boca Raton, West Boca and Delray Beach use Ameritas coverage at our office near Boca Grove.

Please call (561) 235-5424 before your visit so we can confirm how your specific Ameritas plan works with our office.

How do Ameritas PPO dental plans typically work?

Ameritas PPO plans use a network of dentists with negotiated fees while generally also allowing you to see dentists outside the network. Some Ameritas plans are designed with features that reward consistent preventive care, and some individual plans bundle dental with vision or hearing benefits. Your plan summary explains which features apply to you.

Like most PPOs, Ameritas plans typically include an annual maximum, a deductible and tiered coverage for preventive, basic and major services. Preventive care is usually covered at the highest level and major work such as crowns at a lower level. Individual Ameritas plans may include waiting periods before certain services are covered.

How does our Ameritas dentist team in Boca Raton help?

Debbie verifies your Ameritas benefits before treatment, checks waiting periods and frequency limits, and walks you through a clear estimate of your portion. After your visit, we file your claim with Ameritas and follow up as needed.

If you purchased your own plan, we can also help you understand how its features apply to the care you are considering, without any pressure.

Which treatments do Ameritas members often ask about?

Ameritas members come to Boca Dental Arts for:

• Exams, cleanings and oral cancer screenings
• Tooth-colored fillings, inlays and onlays
• Crowns and bridges
• Implant crowns, bridges and implant dentures
• Cosmetic treatments such as whitening, bonding and porcelain veneers

How can I make the most of my Ameritas annual benefits?

Annual maximums usually reset each benefit year, and unused benefits generally do not carry over unless your plan includes a specific rollover feature. Completing preventive visits on schedule, planning around any waiting periods, and spacing major work across benefit years are smart ways to get more value from an Ameritas PPO.

Is an Ameritas individual plan a good fit if I am between jobs?

Many people look at individual dental plans like those from Ameritas when they are self-employed, between employers, or recently retired. These plans can help with preventive care right away, though benefits for larger treatment may be limited at first by waiting periods. We cannot recommend a specific policy, but we can explain how the care you need is likely to interact with the plan you choose.

If you already know you need a crown or other restorative work, call (561) 235-5424. We can explain the factors that affect the cost of that care and talk through payment options.
