What Is United Healthcare PPO?
United Healthcare PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) is one of the most popular health insurance plans in the US. It gives members flexibility in choosing their care provider, including dentists.
With a PPO plan, you don’t need a referral from a primary care physician to see a dentist. You can choose from a wide provider network, which includes in-network providers like us here at Cedar Dental Care. You can also see an out-of-network provider, though costs are higher.
For many Fremont residents, UnitedHealthcare coverage comes through their employer, making it easier to access medical and dental care services. Whether you’re new to the plan or have been insured for years, our team can help you understand how it works and how to use your benefits.
Dental Services Covered by United Healthcare PPO
Most plans break coverage into three main categories:
Preventive Care
Preventive services are usually 100% covered. That means exams, cleanings, and X-rays are often fully covered under your plan. Preventive visits are the foundation of good oral health and help you avoid more costly treatment later.
Basic Care
Fillings, extractions, and simple procedures are usually covered at 70-80% depending on your plan. These services are designed to stop dental problems from getting worse.
Major Care
For bigger treatments—crowns, dentures, root canals, or even dental implants—your coverage will pay a portion and you’ll pay the rest. These services are more expensive, but having a PPO plan helps reduce the overall cost.
Remember: exact coverage depends on your plan’s network. Some cosmetic services, like whitening, may not be covered, but we offer financing options for those treatments.

Use Your United Healthcare Benefits Before They Expire
Many patients don’t realize that health insurance plans have yearly maximums. If you don’t use them before the end of the year, you lose them.
Here’s what to remember:
- You have an annual deductible to meet before major coverage begins.
- Benefits are reset each year. If you don’t schedule preventive visits, you’ll waste covered care.
- UnitedHealthcare PPO plans are often “use-it-or-lose-it.”Don’t let your hard-earned insurance go to waste. Schedule preventive visits like exams and cleanings before your plan resets.
What to Bring to Your First Appointment
To make your visit smooth, we recommend bringing:
- Your UnitedHealthcare insurance card or digital version.
- A government-issued ID.
- Completed patient forms (you can also fill them out here).
- A list of medications or allergies.
If you’re unsure what’s covered, our front desk team can verify your insurance plan on the spot.
FAQs
Is Cedar Dental Care an in-network provider with United Healthcare PPO?
Yes. We are in the network for UnitedHealthcare PPO, so you’ll likely pay less when you visit our office. This also makes it easier for us to submit your claims and explain what’s covered.
Can I still visit if I have an EPO plan instead of a PPO?
Yes, we welcome patients with EPO plans, too. Keep in mind that an exclusive provider organization is more limited—you may need to stay within the narrow network. Our team can confirm if your plan covers services here.
What if I see an out-of-network provider?
You can still receive care from an out-of-network provider, but your out-of-pocket costs may be higher. UnitedHealthcare does cover some out-of-network services, but staying in the network saves you money.
Does UnitedHealthcare cover cosmetic dentistry?
Most insurance plans do not cover cosmetic-only treatments like whitening. However, if a procedure has a medical reason (for example, repairing teeth), part of it might be covered. Financing is available for other services.
How do I know if my treatment will be covered?
Our team verifies coverage before your visit. We’ll submit a pre-treatment estimate to the insurer so you know what’s included, what you’ll need to pay, and how to plan.
