Can tooth extraction be reimbursed by medical insurance?

The social security card for tooth extraction can be reimbursed. Because tooth extraction is within the scope of basic medical insurance reimbursement. In addition to the basic materials and treatment expenses for tooth extraction and filling, the medical expenses for treating periodontal diseases, gingivitis and other dental diseases can also be reimbursed by social security cards. Because they all belong to the category of dental treatment, they are all within the scope of basic medical insurance reimbursement.

But if you are orthodontist, or implant teeth, wash teeth, porcelain teeth, implant teeth and so on. Then there is no way to reimburse the related expenses with the social security card. Because these are all in the category of dental cosmetic surgery, they are not within the scope of basic medical insurance reimbursement, and naturally there is no way to use social security cards for reimbursement.

And we also need to pay attention to one thing. If you want to use the social security card to reimburse the cost of tooth extraction, you must go to the stomatology department of the hospital designated by the medical insurance. If the tooth is extracted in a clinic that is not designated by medical insurance, it will not be reimbursed.

With regard to dental care, medical insurance can be reimbursed:

1, tooth filling (including basic materials and treatment fees);

2, tooth extraction;

3, the cost of treating periodontal disease, gingivitis and other dental diseases;

4. Wash your teeth.

Medical insurance can not be reimbursed for beauty, such as

1, dentures;
