Insurance plans can be confusing, and MEDICO members often ask us the same practical questions: Is my cleaning covered? What will a crown cost me? How much of my yearly maximum is left? Our team answers each of those before treatment, so you know where you stand and can plan care at a pace that works for your budget.
What does a MEDICO dental plan usually cover?
Coverage depends on your MEDICO dental plan. Typical PPO coverage tiers look like this:
- Preventive care such as exams, X-rays and dental cleanings: often 100%
- Basic restorative care such as fillings: often 70–80%
- Major care such as dental bridges, crowns, implants and root canal therapy: often 50%
- Cosmetic treatment: usually not covered
Annual maximums, deductibles, waiting periods and frequency limits vary by plan, and unused benefits usually reset each plan year.

MEDICO dentist in Richardson: your questions
Is Gentle Touch Dentistry in-network with MEDICO?
MEDICO is on our in-network PPO dental insurance providers list. Our coordinator confirms your specific plan before your appointment.
Does MEDICO dental cover implants?
Some plans cover implants in part as a major service, while others do not. We check your benefits and offer financing for dental implants.
How often can I get a cleaning with MEDICO?
Many PPO plans cover two cleanings and exams per year, but frequency limits vary. We confirm yours when we verify benefits.
What if my MEDICO plan isn't a PPO dental plan?
Call (469) 947-3963 before booking. We may still be able to help, or our in-office membership plan, with 12 months of coverage and immediate benefits, may be an option.
Can I use MEDICO for a dental emergency?
Emergency exams and treatment are often partly covered. We offer same-day emergency appointments whenever possible, so call us right away.
Do unused MEDICO dental benefits roll over?
Usually not. Most dental plans reset each plan year, so scheduling cleanings and needed treatment before your benefits renew helps you get full value.
Can my whole family see the same MEDICO dentist in Richardson?
Yes. We care for children, teens and adults, so everyone covered on your plan can visit one office.
