Use Your Dental Benefits!
At Springhurst Dentistry, we'll help you maximize your dental benefits for optimal dental health
December 31 marks the end of the year for most insurance plans. What's this mean for you? If you have remaining benefits or dental care you need completed, now's the time to make an appointment with our office.
4 Reasons you should use your dental insurance before the end of the year:
- Yearly Maximums- Unused benefits don't typically rollover, so you should use your full benefits when possible.
- Premiums - You're paying a monthly premium in order to have dental insurance, so take advantage of your benefits. Use your insurance for regular cleanings and check ups to keep your teeth and gums healthy.
- "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" -Visits to your dentist, and preventative services, such as x-rays, will help prevent more serious, extensive treatments down the road.
- Complete any outstanding treatment - If the dentist has suggested treatment for you that you have put off, now is the time to schedule it. Take advantage of your current dental insurance plan because next year you may not have dental insurance or you may have additional procedures to cover.
Contact your us today to schedule your:
- General exams and cleanings
- Fluoride treatments
- Sealants
- Fillings
- Dental Implants
- Crown or Bridge work

If you're not sure how much you have already paid on your deductible, contact the member service department of your dental health plan. Maximize your year-end dental benefits before it's too late. You'll benefit from better dental health, an improved smile and the best use of your dental insurance.
