Don't Lose Your Dental Benefits


"When it comes to dental benefit plans, millions of people each year are ringing in the New Year leaving money on the table. According to the National Association of Dental Plans, only 2.8% of people with PPO dental plan participants reached or exceeded their plans annual maximum." - ADA

Are you one of the 97.2% that lets your hard-earned dental dollars go to waste?   Here is some information that you need to keep in mind so that your dental benefits get kept by the insurance companies.

1) Know when you need to use your benefits by.   Is it Dec 31 or is it another day?   Call and find out the details of your plan.

2) Know what your coverage is.   It is good to know what is covered and what is not when you plan how you are going to use your insurance dollars.

3) Take advantage of the benefits before they run out.   Prevention is the most important!   Make sure that you get in for your dental exams.   Plan out your dental work with your provider so that you can get the most bang for your buck with your insurance.

4)  Schedule early.   Don't wait until the last month before you schedule your appointments.   Schedule early, that way you can be sure you can be seen before your benefits run out.

USE IT or LOSE IT (we don't want you to lose it)
