The University’s dental plan, administered by Arkansas BlueCross BlueShield, offers coverage for basic, restorative and preventive dental services. Also, there’s a new orthodontia benefit for children under the age of 18. With the dental plan, you must choose a dentist in the national BlueCross BlueShield network to receive benefits.
The table below shows how much you will pay for dental services:
| Select PPO Plus Network | |
|---|---|
| Annual Deductible | $50/person ($100 maximum/family) |
| Annual Maximum Benefit | $1,500/person |
| Preventive Care (Cleanings, exams, x-rays) | No cost |
| Basic Care (fillings, extractions, root canals) | 20% |
| Major Care (crowns, bridges, partials, implants) | 50% |
| Orthodontia (dependent children under age 18) | |
|---|---|
| Deductible | None |
| Lifetime Maximum | $2,000 |

TIP: Save Money with In-Network Care
To find an in-network dentist, visit uasdental.blueadvantagearkansas.com and select “Find a Dentist.” You can search for a dentist by city, ZIP code, distance, doctor name or specialty.
If you visit an out-of-network dentist, you will pay more for services, plus 100% of the difference between the full out-of-network cost and the reasonable and customary level charged by Arkansas BlueCross and BlueShield. So you’ll always save money by visiting an in-network dentist.
