If you have dental insurance, here’s an important reminder: most dental insurance benefits expire on December 31st—and once they’re gone, they’re gone forever. At Sekhon Dental – Dentist Agoura Hills, we want our patients to maximize the benefits they’ve already paid for.
If you don’t have dental insurance, we offer dental membership plans to make quality dental care affordable without breaking the bank. To learn more, visit Sekhon Dental – Dentist Agoura Hills Membership Plans.
Unfortunately, many patients wait until the very end of the year to schedule treatment, which can lead to packed appointment calendars and missed opportunities. By planning ahead in September, you’ll have the best chance to maximize your coverage, protect your oral health, and avoid a last-minute rush.
Why You Should Use Your Dental Insurance Before It Expires
- You’ve Already Paid for It
Dental insurance is a “use it or lose it” benefit. If you don’t use your annual coverage, your unused dollars don’t roll over to next year. - Preventive Care Is Usually Covered
Most plans cover routine cleanings, exams, and X-rays at 100%, so you can take advantage of preventive care at no additional cost to you. - Treat Problems Early
Small cavities can turn into root canals if left untreated. Using your benefits now saves you money—and helps you avoid more complex treatment later. - Avoid the Holiday Rush
December is one of the busiest months for dental offices. By scheduling in the fall, you’ll have more flexibility to pick the appointment times that work best for you.
