AD yes, dependants, no. There is a monthly cost($11/spouse, $32/spouse and all children) plus dependants have a co pay as well.
2 free cleanings a year, one set of x rays a year(but you have to pay for the copies). everything else is covered at a percentage..anywhere from 40-80%.
cosmetic dentisry is not covered for AD..there is a fee.

soldiers do, dependants dont. Dependants have to sign up for United Concordia Dental Program. After your 1st month is paid via check or credit card, the monthly 19.00 will automatically come out of your soldiers pay. BUT you must find a dentist that is in the plan and you will still be responsible for 20% of the charges. The only things that you dont have to pay for are the 2 times a year cleanings and x-rays.

We pay about $27/mo for the family TRICARE dental plan... they cover basic stuff at about 80% and then they cover higher end stuff at 50-70% depending on your rank. (the higher your rank the more you pay)
* if you are in major need the on-post dental clinics will see you on a space available basis, however they only do the basics--there is nothing aesthetic about military dental work...they drill you and then fill you --that's it.

Active duty gets free dental. Their dependents pay a certain amount per month. As the spouse, I pay $11.05/month.

the answer to this question is YES.,.,, The military personnell will always get top priority on all medical care and the spouse will have to wait a little bit longer for an appointment or accept afternoon appointments.

you start with your PCM.. and by no means is it easy to get. Priority goes to AD who were wounded and require medically necessary cosmetic surgery. Only about 5 locations in the country offer it and the waiting list is often 2 years long or longer. Frankly the surgeries are offered to keep the Doctors in practice. they are getting PLENTY of practice working on our Wounded Troops. so getting on the list is hard enough,let alone actually getting any procedure done. oh and to get on the list, you need to prove that it is a severe mental or physical hardship that you have little boobies.
