If you have dental insurance, we want you to get the maximum benefit from it. With less than two months left in the year, let us help you do that!
Here are three things you’ll want to consider:
- Use It, Don’t Lose It – Many insurance plans offer benefits on a calendar year, from January through December. There is also often an annual maximum, the total amount they will pay for your care during a 12-month period. If your plan uses the calendar year – and we can help you research to find out for sure – you have until the end of 2021 before the amount “resets” for next year. We can work with you to ensure you use all of the coverage you’re entitled to, without exceeding it. For example, if you need to have teeth extracted prior to getting implants or dentures, it may be advantageous to remove the teeth in 2021 and schedule the remaining treatment in 2022.
- Keep Small Problems From Getting Worse – It’s important to treat problems in their earliest stages to keep them from becoming more complex and more expensive to solve. If you have a cavity, you’ll want to get a filling. If you delay, you may end up needing a more costly crown or even a root canal. Our dentists will work with you to keep your care as cost effective as possible.
- Take Advantage of Preventive Care – Many insurance plans cover the cost of two dental exams and cleanings in one calendar year. These services are essential to help keep your teeth and gums free of disease. They also give our team a chance to find problems when they are still small, as mentioned above. If any of your family members need exams, schedule them now.
