Did you know your dental benefits reset every year? It’s true. If your dental insurance plan, like most is on a calendar year, you will lose out on all unused benefits after December 31^st.

This is the best time of year to take advantage of everything your dental insurance provides, especially if you have outstanding treatments. Here are just a few of the services you want to use before you lose the opportunity.

Routine Checkups

Many dental insurance plans provide coverage for two checkups a year at six-month intervals. If you haven’t had a cleaning in the last six months, now is the best time for you to call and schedule you appointment with us here at South Baldwin Dental Associates. 

Large Treatments

If you need more extensive work that will require multiple visits, the end of the year is the perfect time to get started. This is especially true if you’ve already met your deductible and haven’t hit your annual maximum. Once your deductible is paid, your out-of-pocket expenses can decrease dramatically, making it an ideal situation for larger dental treatments.

Don’t let your 2017 dental benefits go to waste by making sure you use them before December 31. Schedule an appointment with South Baldwin Dental today to get started.
