Do You Need a Referral to See a Maxillofacial Surgeon?

Can you see an oral surgeon without a referral? That’s a good question. For insurance purposes, it’s always best to start with a doctor or dentist. That way they can determine that the oral surgery is a medical necessity, which makes it more likely to be covered by your insurance company. It removes any gray area and makes the medical question easy to prove. That being said, though your dentist will likely recommend a maxillofacial surgeon, you’re free to see whoever you want. Make sure they are highly qualified, offer any necessary sedation methods to make you comfortable, and are within convenient driving distance.
