If you have dental insurance coverage or a health savings account, then you have benefits and funds available to use. But once the year ends, so do these benefits! But we can help. In today’s blog, Jeffrey Leibowitz, DDS, talks about using your dental benefits before the year comes to a close!
Your Dental Coverage Options
If you have dental insurance, then you have coverage that is available to use now, but which could vanish at the end of the year. You could even have a waiting period with some plans before your 2027 coverage begins. If you have a health savings account, then you could be accruing funds that may also expire at midnight on December 31st. Instead of losing what you have earned and paid for, why not see our team now before the hectic holiday season starts, so we can help you use what you have available to boost the health, function, and beauty of your smile? You still have time to use your benefits!
Starting with a Checkup Visit
The first step is an initial checkup and cleaning visit, which is usually covered with most dental insurance plans. Our team will help you navigate your benefits and use what you have available to use, and what portions of a treatment this could cover. We will examine your smile to assess the health of your smile and conduct a diagnosis with precision, and then create a treatment plan to correct any concerns we find. Our team will also clean your teeth in the same visit to help remove plaque and tartar, which lowers the risk of everything from bad breath and teeth stains to tooth decay and gum disease.
Comprehensive Dental Care
Our team offers our patients a comprehensive array of treatment options to help smiles of all ages. We could create oral appliances to handle TMJ and bruxism concerns, and offer fluoride and dental sealants to help strengthen little smiles. When restoration is needed, we have custom and lifelike crowns and fillings. Prosthetic dentistry can allow us to address tooth loss with custom bridges, dentures, and implant restorations. Our team also offers a full range of cosmetic treatments to reshape and transform your smile, from teeth whitening to porcelain veneers.
If you have any questions about using your benefits before they expire at the end of the year, then contact our team today to learn more and get started on your journey to your best smile.
