Don’t Let Dental Benefits Expire

Tuesday - September 20th, 2016

Unlike a dog, dental benefits do not roll over.

That’s because most dental insurance plans are on a calendar year. So, at midnight December 31, any benefits left on the table will disappear like Cinderella at the ball. Unless you actually like throwing money away, its time to call your dentist (or find one fast), make an appointment, and max out your annual dental benefits cap.

Don’t know how much you have left on your dental benefit cap? Your dentist has people on staff to help you with that.Want more good reasons to call your dentist? Try these: you are not the only person who puts things off til the last minute.

The sooner you call, the more likely your dentist can work around your schedule. (Don’t forget dentists take holiday vacations, too.) If your plan has a deductible, that starts all over on January 1, too.Dental fees could go up next year. We don’t know that they will, were just sayin’. If you have a 2010 Flexible Spending Account or Health Savings Account, out-of-pocket dental expenses count toward those. KA-CHING! More money saved.
