Class C Major Restorative Services Notes:
 
  • For reporting and benefit purposes, the completion date for crowns is the cementation date.
     
  • All major restorative and prosthodontic services (i.e., crown, bridges, implants and dentures) are combined under one replacement limitation under the plan. Benefits for major restorative and prosthodontic services are combined and limited to one every 60 months per tooth or arch depending on the service. For example, if benefits for a removable partial denture are paid, this includes benefits to replace all missing teeth in the arch. No additional benefits for the arch would be considered until the 60 month replacement limit was met.
     
  • When dental services that are subject to a frequency limitation were performed prior to your effective date of coverage, the date of the prior service may be counted toward the time, frequency limitations and/or replacement limitations under this dental insurance. (For example, even if a crown, partial bridge, etc. was not placed while covered under BCBS FEP Dental, or paid by BCBS FEP Dental, the frequency limitations may apply.)
