As the year draws to a close in Collinsville, Illinois, Liesen Family Dental reminds you to make the most of your dental insurance benefits before they reset. December is an ideal time to take advantage of any unused coverage, especially for preventive care that can keep your dental expenses low in the coming year.
Why Use Your Dental Benefits Now?
Preventive Care:
Most dental plans cover preventive services like cleanings, exams, and X-rays, often at little or no cost to you. These services are crucial for maintaining good oral health and avoiding more costly and extensive procedures in the future.
Unused Benefits:
Many insurance plans have a yearly maximum, and any unused portion typically doesn’t roll over to the next year. Check your plan to see what benefits you have left and consider scheduling treatments or check-ups you’ve postponed.
Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA):
If you have an FSA, remember that these funds may expire at the end of the year. Dental expenses are generally eligible for FSA spending, making this a great time to address any dental needs.
Services to Consider
1. Routine Check-Ups:
If you haven’t yet had two dental cleanings this year, book one now to catch up on essential oral health maintenance.
2. Uncompleted Treatments:
If you’ve started a dental treatment plan but haven’t completed all the recommended procedures, now is the time to do so.
3. Advanced Procedures:
Consider using your remaining benefits for crowns, bridges, or orthodontics, which are usually partially covered by dental insurance.
