Dental Insurance at Edgemere Dental
Navigating dental insurance can sometimes feel overwhelming, but understanding your coverage is crucial to maintaining your oral health without unexpected costs. At our office, we are committed to helping you make sense of your benefits and maximize your plan.
Please note that we do not accept Medicaid.















Understanding Dental Insurance
Your smile is our priority, and we want to ensure that dental care is accessible and stress-free for everyone. Whether you have insurance through an employer, a private plan, or are exploring financial alternatives, Edgemere Dental is dedicated to guiding you through the dental insurance process for a smooth and transparent experience.
Dental insurance plays a big role in offsetting the costs of your oral health care. However, understanding your coverage is key to making the most out of your benefits. Our knowledgeable team is here to help you clarify your insurance details and maximize your plan’s potential.
How Does Dental Insurance Work?
Dental insurance is designed to cover preventive care and help reduce out-of-pocket costs for other treatments. Here’s a simple guide to coverage:
- Preventive Care (like exams and cleanings): Usually covered at 100%.
- Comprehensive Treatments (such as root canals or crowns): Covered between 50%–80%, depending on your plan.
When you visit Edgemere Dental, we’ll provide a detailed breakdown of your benefits and estimated costs, so there are no surprises. Our team ensures maximum transparency in explaining what your plan covers and how you can easily manage any additional costs.

Please Note
At this time, Valley Dental Care does not accept Medicaid or HMO insurance policies. However, we offer several alternative payment options to make quality care accessible to everyone.
What Affects Your Coverage?
Insurance policies can differ in coverage details, even when provided by the same company. Things like fee schedules, reimbursable treatments, and policy limits vary by plan. For example, some plans may include orthodontic coverage, while others may not.
At Edgemere Dental, we handle insurance claims on your behalf, submitting them electronically for faster processing. Although the final decision rests with your insurance provider, our team works diligently to help resolve any claim discrepancies.

No Insurance? No Problem!
Don’t have dental insurance? At Edgemere Dental, we believe everyone deserves excellent oral care. That’s why we offer solutions to make dental treatments affordable for everyone.
Dental Savings Plan
Our in-house Dental Savings Plan works like a membership, offering discounts on essential treatments such as cleanings, x-rays, fillings, and more. It’s an excellent option to keep your smile healthy on a budget.
Financial Options Available!
Edgemere Dental understands that not everyone in the El Paso community has access to dental insurance, which is why they provide alternative financial options to ensure everyone can receive quality oral care. Their commitment to accessibility and patient well-being drives them to make dental treatments affordable for all.
