Many plans contribute, commonly around half, and the annual maximum is usually what limits how much comes back.

Cost figures are estimated ranges gathered for comparison. They are not quotes and not a guarantee of price. Your own cost depends on your mouth, your insurance and the practice you choose. Estimates only — confirm pricing with the practice.
