		<description><![CDATA[Unfortunately, Medigap does not cover routine dental examinations.  Although Medigap Plans are designed to fill the gaps in Original Medicare, they will only pay for Medicare-covered services.

Routine dental care is not covered under Original Medicare; therefore, it is also not covered by Medigap (Medicare Supplement insurance).  Medicare will only pay for dental services that are an integral part of a Medicare covered procedure.  Some exceptions include, reconstruction of the jaw following accidental injury, or extractions done in preparation for radiation treatment involving the jaw. 

Medicare Beneficiaries often purchase a separate dental plan to meet their individual needs.  If I can help you with your specific situation, please feel free to contact me.]]></description>
