Appealing a denied claim

There are two Boston University Dental Health Centers. Both provide a comprehensive range of dental services, such as X-rays, cleanings, fillings and crowns. Fees for dental services are found in your dental fee schedule.

If you choose to receive dental care at one of the Dental Health Centers by a licensed staff dentist, preventive and restorative services will be provided by licensed dental hygienists and residents (graduate and postgraduate).

If you require any of the specialty services such as orthodontics (braces) or oral surgery (extractions), you will be referred to the appropriate postdoctoral specialty department. Your care will be monitored by your staff dentist at the Boston University Dental Health Center.

The standard fees-for-service provided through the Dental Health Centers are already far below those charged by most private practices. Therefore, the University's employee discounts, which are applied to these standard fees, offer you and your family members a unique opportunity to obtain quality dental care at a very low price.
