How Dental Insurance Works in Maryland
Most PPO dental plans use a 100-80-50 structure: preventive care is covered at 100%, basic restorative care at 80%, and major restorative care at 50% — all after your annual deductible ($50–$100 typically).
Most plans have an annual maximum of $1,000–$2,000. Once you reach this limit, you pay 100% out of pocket for the rest of the year. Maximizing your preventive benefits (two free cleanings per year) is the single most effective way to stretch your dental insurance.
