My health insurance is refusing to cover the cost of my flap surgery saying it's just normal dental treatment or cosmetic. They cover all surgeries but claim this doesn't qualify. Is flap surgery really considered cosmetic or should it be covered under medical insurance?
Whether surgery is needed depends on the exact diagnosis, size, and severity of the condition. Some cases can be managed without surgery, while others may require it for effective treatment. A detailed evaluation will help decide the best course of action.
