How to Verify Your Aetna Dental Benefits

Visit aetna.com or call the number on your Aetna member ID card. Request a predetermination of benefits for CDT codes D6010 (implant body placement), D6057 or D6058 (abutment/crown), and D7953 (bone graft) — this is a non-binding but useful cost estimate. Our office submits predeterminations routinely and can walk you through the Explanation of Benefits. Call us at (628) 286-9012 or book a free consultation below.

What Aetna Dental Typically Does NOT Cover

Honest transparency about exclusions helps you plan your budget and avoid surprises.

  • Implants replacing teeth lost before plan effective date (missing-tooth exclusion on individual plans)
  • Cosmetic modifications not deemed medically necessary
  • Procedures not meeting Aetna's clinical policy guidelines
  • Implants placed before any applicable waiting period has elapsed
  • Amounts exceeding Aetna's Usual, Customary & Reasonable (UCR) fee schedule

These exclusions apply to most standard Aetna plans. Your employer group plan may differ. Our treatment coordinator will verify your specific exclusions before treatment.
