Insurance Benefits Typically Don’t Roll Over To Next Year

Each year your dental insurance company probably gives you a maximum amount of available benefits. Since those benefits don’t typically roll over into the following year, you’ll want to contact us now to get your appointment scheduled!

We all know how it is, once the holiday season is upon us—hectic! Life can get really busy and some things fall between the cracks. So remember that your dental health needs your attention too—not just for the sake of your teeth, but for your overall health. If you’re due (or overdue) for an appointment, make sure to talk to our office. Take advantage of those dental insurance benefits before time is up!

FAQs?…

1.How much do I have left in insurance benefits for the year?

   There are a couple of different ways to figure this out.  You can call your  

   Insurance company, go online, or we can help with a complimentary

   benefits check for you.

2.How much will my insurance cover?

   All plans vary, but for any work recommended, we can send in a      

   pretreatment estimate to see what your insurance will cover.

3. Do my insurance benefits start over the 1st of the year?

    All plans are different.  Most are active for the calendar year, however

    There are some plans that run for different periods.  We can help you

    determine what type of plan you have, or you can call your insuranc company.

4. Do I have orthodontic coverage?

    This depends on your plan. It is common to have plans that have

     dependent coverage. Some do have adult coverage and so it is worth

     looking into since we do both Invisalign Orthodontic treatment  And Six Month   

     Smile braces. We would be happy to do a complimentary benefits check for you.
