Dental Benefits: Use Them or Lose Them

Don’t miss out on the dental treatment you need, deserve and have the benefits to cover! Unfortunately, many dental benefits dollars don’t roll over into the next year, leading to a significant waste of your valuable benefits payments. Bottom line: when it comes to dental benefits, what you don’t use, you lose! Unlike medical insurance, dental benefits and plans provide you with an allotted amount of money to spend on your care each year.

If you have anything extra left over, it may disappear come January! Schedule an appointment today to maximize what your dental benefits will cover this year so that next year’s benefits can be used for any unexpected treatment needs that may arise. For most plans, as of January 1, 2022, you will again be required to pay 100% of your annual insurance deductible before any dental benefits are paid by your insurance company. Now is the perfect time to achieve the smile you’ve always dreamed of and take full advantage of your dental benefits.

At West Linn Dental, we are deeply committed to education and expertise, both of which include helping our patients take advantage of their dental benefits! Call our office today at (503) 635–4493, and together let’s make sure you are in excellent dental health for the New Year and receiving the full value of your benefits. We look forward to seeing you soon!
