Does Cigna cover pediatric dentistry?

Yes. Cigna dental plans cover children's dental care, and preventive visits are typically the best-covered category. What you pay depends on your specific plan and tier, which is why we verify your exact benefits before any treatment.

How Cigna dental plans work for kids

Cigna offers two main plan styles:

• Cigna Dental PPO (DPPO) — you can see our Walnut Creek team while sharing costs through co-pays and deductibles.
• Cigna Dental Care HMO (DHMO) — assigns you to a specific network provider, so it's worth a quick call to confirm your plan applies with us.

Not sure which one you have? Bring your Cigna card to your first visit, or call us and we'll sort it out.

What Cigna typically covers for children

• Preventive care — exams, cleanings, X-rays, and fluoride, often covered at a high percentage with little or no deductible.
• Basic restorative — fillings and simple extractions, usually covered after your deductible.
• Major and orthodontic — coverage varies by plan, with annual maximums and possible waiting periods.

How to verify your Cigna benefits

Before your child's first visit, our front-desk team contacts Cigna, confirms what's covered, and explains any out-of-pocket cost up front — no surprises. In most cases we file claims directly with Cigna for you.
