Dental insurance?

Does Tricare cover dental work? Like me getting my wisdom teeth taken out?

From what I heard Tricare has terrible dental and eye coverage. That is just what I have heard though!

BOO! I need my wisdom teeth taken out sooooo bad. And I was planning on waiting till I was covered on Tri Care, because it would cost me sooooooo much to do it now!

From what I heard they only really cover routine check ups and cleanings.

That sucks. lol.

yes, its united concordia. They covered my wisdom teeth coming out as well....I had to pay a portion, but not the whole thing. I just had to call united concordia and argue with them about covering my anestesia because my teeth were still under my gums, but they did.

My teeth are kinda growing in, they are just not pushing through my gums. BUT they have been growing in since my sophmore year of high school, like 4 years ago.

They are just now started to really hurt, and give me ear aches and head achs

That is good! At least they covered some of it!

May I ask how much of it you had to pay for?

There dental looks good. I was going over the forms just now. They even cover orthodontics it looks like.
