Other benefits
What does WAS emergency dental insurance cover?
Emergency dental insurance from WAS covers the cost of necessary dental care for unexpected or sudden dental problems that require immediate treatment, such as a toothache or a broken tooth. Bills abroad for these treatments can run high, not only ruining a trip but also causing financial strain.
The dental benefit in insurance plans from WAS cover:
- Fillings
- Extractions
- X-rays
- Pain medication
- Denture repairs
Why should I consider the benefits of dental care in my insurance policy?
Unexpected dental problems can be very expensive to treat, especially in countries like the US, and having insurance can help offset the cost of necessary care.
Emergency dental insurance from WAS provides peace of mind, knowing that you will be covered in the event of a dental emergency, saving you time and stress.
Dental emergencies can happen – a trip and fall leading to a broken tooth, a gum infection needing antibiotics, a toothache causing excruciating pain. In these circumstances, you don’t want a reason to hesitate. Having the benefits of emergency dental insurance means you get the treatment you need without panicking about the costs.
*Note that not all benefits apply and will depend on whether you have selected them (and are reflected on your Certificate of Insurance). Terms, conditions, exclusions, limits and sub-limits apply. Please read the Product Disclosure Statement (PDS) and Target Market Determination (TMD) for further details.
