*Loan,banking and credit>>>dental insurance

Is dental treatment included under medical insurance in any countries outside the US?

I'm looking to find how it works in other coutries...does the medical insurance ever cover dental care?

I can tell you about the medical system in Germany:
yes, the basic dental therapy is covered by the medical insurance. You don麓t have to pay for check up, x-rays, root canal treatment, extractions, periodontal treatment, tartar removal (once a year)...if you want something special, like a composite filling, any better type of crowns (not just gold) then you have to pay. The price you pay depends on how much you earn. When you麓re poor, the insurance pays more, sometimes even everything. But you麓ll just get the cheapest materials.
Our system seems to be much better than yours, but still it isn麓t perfect and we have a lot of trouble.
When I first read all the questions here, one thing really striked me: many people don麓t have any insurance!!! In Germany you MUST have one. As soon as you have work, you麓re automatically getting insured by your boss. If you麓re jobless the work-agency pays your insurance.

we get a seperate insurance for this ,but if you look after your teeth its cheaper to pay as you go
Most medical insurance companies cover dental treatment in Australia. You can decide what extras you want covered with your policy. Want more information on specific companies in Australia then have a look at this site www.iselect.com.au

not in Canada....we have 100% free health insurance, but not dental coverage...most have dental plans...the rest have sore teeth!
In Australia if you have medical insurance you can choose to add dental to it . Here we provide our own health insuranse so you can pick and choose to what suits you.
Most people just pay at the dentist.
I am on a pension and for pensioners and those on a health care card (low income earners) there are government dentists. You pay $20 a visit until all the things are done up to the cost of $80. Only thing is you can only do this every 2 years but if there is an emergency they will see you for $20.
From primary school (prep to Grade 6) and the first 2 years of high school kids can go for free once a year (all treatment included).
Dental health providers in foreign countries advertise prices at one-third to one-tenth of U.S. prices. What鈥檚 more, even insured patients may benefit from traveling for their care
