Use It or Lose It!

It’s December and everyone is probably thinking about Christmas presents. But did you realize that you may have forgotten about  a wonderful gift? You could have hundreds of dollars worth of unused insurance benefits that are about to expire at the end of this year! That’s not something you want to go to waste! This might be the time to get a crown you’ve been needing with the extra benefits you have left. Or, if you are waiting for the renewal of your benefits for some major work in the new year, this is a great opportunity to use the rest of your benefits for some simple procedures like taking care of a few cavities that need to be filled. Don’t ignore the money you could use for important dental care for you and your family!

Insurance can be a bit daunting, but don’t be afraid of asking for help. If you have questions about making the best use of your benefits, give us a call at 615-459-3366 and we will be happy to customize a treatment plan that gives you great care and makes the most of your benefits.  Some things to be considered are whether your insurance is through an employer or a personal plan. Either way, you have options and should make sure that your plan is what works best for you. Remember that if you’re paying for insurance your premiums should be less than half of your benefit maximum! If you are paying half or more, you might want to look at another plan, so more money can go toward your actual dental care. If you’re considering changing insurance companies, let us know so that we can advise you on what coverage options will give you the most benefits. We are happy to help you in any way we can so don’t hesitate to call us with your questions! We love hearing from you, and we wish you all a very merry Christmas!
