Are dental implants covered by the Ayushman Card scheme?

Dear Ramesh shankar ji,

Dental implants are artificial tooth roots, usually made of titanium, that are surgically placed into the jawbone to hold a replacement tooth or bridge.

In general, dental implants are not covered under the Ayushman Bharat (PM-JAY) scheme. Dental implants are considered a prosthetic or elective dental procedure, and routine dental treatments such as implants, fillings, root canals, dentures, and periodontal treatments are typically excluded from PM-JAY coverage.

If you are considering dental implants for missing teeth, you will generally need to bear the cost privately, as they are not part of the standard PM-JAY benefit packages.
