Frequently Asked Questions
DenScore rates oral surgeons based on clinical qualifications, patient satisfaction, scheduling flexibility, and other criteria. While oral surgeons may request inclusion in our directories, they are thoroughly vetted and must meet our strict quality control standards to be listed. Whether you choose an oral surgeon from this list or not, we always recommend doing your own research beforehand. For more information, please refer to our Terms of Service.
Most dental insurance plans cover at least 50% of oral surgery procedures, such as tooth extractions, when performed by an in-network provider. Families with Medicaid often have coverage for oral surgery, typically for both children and adults. However, procedures like dental implants are rarely covered, or only reimbursed at a small percentage. For seniors, traditional Medicare does not include oral surgery benefits, but many Medicare Advantage plans cover services such as extractions and sometimes even implants, which can greatly reduce out-of-pocket expenses. If you’re evaluating your options and want to save the most on dental care, we created this checklist for you!
Oral surgery can be expensive, especially if performed under conscious IV sedation. To avoid overpaying, consider contacting multiple offices and compare prices for the treatment you need, since fees can vary significantly between providers. Many offices also charge different rates for patients with insurance compared to those paying out of pocket. Another way to save is by visiting a dental school, where student dentists provide care under faculty supervision at prices that are often much lower than private practice rates.
Oral surgeons are dental specialists trained to perform complex procedures such as dental implant placement, wisdom tooth extractions, and treatments under IV sedation. While some general dentists also perform implants and other surgical procedures, choosing an oral surgeon often provides added benefits because of their advanced training and extensive experience.
