As we approach the end of the year, it’s important to remind everyone about something that could help you save money on your dental care – your unused dental insurance benefits! 🦷💰At Sekhon Dental – Dentist Agoura Hills, we aim to educate and make our patients aware of their resources.
Why Should You Use Your Benefits Now?
Most dental insurance plans work on a calendar year basis, which means that your benefits reset on January 1st. Any benefits that you don’t use by the end of the year are lost—they don’t roll over into the next year.
Here’s what that means for you:
- Maximize your coverage: Your plan likely includes preventive services like cleanings, exams, and x-rays. Take advantage of these now, especially if you haven’t had your second cleaning for the year!
- Save money on treatments: If you need any fillings, crowns, or other dental treatments, using your benefits now can reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
- Avoid holiday rushes: Our schedule tends to fill up quickly at the end of the year, so booking your appointment early ensures you’ll be seen before your benefits expire.
What Happens if You Don’t Use Your Benefits?
If you don’t use your benefits, you’ll be leaving money on the table. Most insurance companies offer an annual maximum—an amount they’ll cover each year for your dental care. If you haven’t reached that maximum, the unused portion disappears when the year ends. That’s money you’ve paid into your plan that you won’t get back!
