Why Choose Mutual of Omaha Dental in Arizona?
- No Waiting Periods — On Any Service
Most dental insurers impose 6–12 month waiting periods before covering basic or major work. Mutual of Omaha waives waiting periods entirely, so your coverage for crowns, oral surgery, and implants begins on day one. - $5,000 Annual Maximum — Among the Highest in Arizona
The Premier plan's $5,000 annual maximum is one of the most generous available in the Arizona individual dental market, providing meaningful financial protection when extensive treatment is needed. - Rollover Benefits That Grow Over Time
On the Premier plan, unused annual maximum dollars roll over into a personal benefit reserve. Policyholders who stay current with preventive visits and don't exhaust their annual max accumulate a growing pool of benefits for larger future expenses. - Implant Coverage With No Waiting Period
Dental implants — typically costing $1,500–$3,000 each — are covered as a major service with no waiting period. Combined with the Premier plan's $5,000 max, this makes meaningful implant coverage accessible from the first month. - Eligibility Ages 18–100, Dependents from Birth
Primary insureds are eligible from age 18 through 100, making these plans suitable even for applicants who have aged out of other carriers' eligibility windows. Dependent children can be added from birth through age 26.

How Rollover Benefits Work
Rollover benefits are a feature on the Mutual Dental Premier plan that allow unused annual maximum dollars to carry forward rather than expiring at year-end. Over time, this creates a growing reserve that can be tapped when you need more extensive — and expensive — dental work.Here is how it works in practice:
1
Attend your preventive visits. You must complete at least one qualifying preventive exam during the plan year to activate rollover eligibility.2
Don't max out your annual benefit. Unused dollars below the annual maximum threshold roll over into your personal reserve account at year-end.3
Reserve builds over years. Each year you qualify, additional dollars accumulate. Your reserve can grow up to the plan's rollover cap.4
Use reserve for big expenses. When you need a crown, implant, or other major work, your reserve supplements the current year's annual max — reducing your out-of-pocket cost.Frequently Asked Questions
