Important Information About Guardian® Managed DentalGuard Dental HMO Plans.
These plans provide Pre-Paid dental benefits through a network of participating general dentists and specialty care dentists. All covered services must be provided by the member’s Primary Care Dentist. Specialty care services are covered only when referred by the member’s Primary Care Dentist and approved in advance by the named underwriting company. Only those services listed in the plan are covered. Certain services are subject to annual or other periodic limitations. Where orthodontic benefits are specifically included, these plans provide for one course of comprehensive treatment per lifetime, per member. These plans do not provide orthodontic benefits if comprehensive orthodontic treatment or retention is in progress as of the member’s effective date under the plan.
