\"smilingYour dentist in Pleasant Grove is booking visits quickly for the end of the New Year — and our schedule is filling up fast. Why the sudden rush? Two reasons: first, people want to make sure their teeth are ready to sparkle in time for the holidays. And second, they want to take advantage of their investment in <\/span>dental insurance<\/span><\/a> before their benefits go to waste!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Many adults don\u2019t realize that dental insurance plans are often set on a calendar year, and rollover periods are very rare. That means when the clock strikes 12 on New Year\u2019s Eve, you won\u2019t just be saying goodbye to 2017 — you will potentially be letting hundreds of dollars worth of dental care slip down the drain, too. <\/span><\/p>\n

Your dentist can help you rescue your unused benefits. At Bear Creek Family Dentistry, we accept virtually every fee-for-service insurance plan as well as Medicaid and CHIP! Keep reading to learn how scheduling an appointment before the year\u2019s end is a wise move for your wallet AND your smile. <\/span><\/p>\n

Preventive Care Is Fully Covered<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you have dental insurance or if your child is covered by Medicaid or CHIP, it\u2019s time to check in on your preventive efforts. Have you and your family undergone two checkups and cleanings in 2017? If not, there is still time to schedule an appointment with your dentist. These appointments are typically fully covered by dental insurance, and Medicaid and CHIP plans cover two checkups for children per year. <\/span><\/p>\n

Preventive care is the foundation of a healthy, complete, and long-lasting smile. When you come in for a checkup and cleaning in December, our team will remove all the plaque and tartar that has had the chance to build up since your last visit. Then, we will check in to look for spots of decay or gum disease. If any are present, there is still time to have these issues fixed before the year\u2019s end — to help make sure you enter into 2018 with excellent oral health. <\/span><\/p>\n

Completing Any Unfinished Treatment Plans<\/span><\/h2>\n

If you have met your deductible for the year, we will advise you to take this opportunity to complete any dental work that you have left hanging. Once 2018 begins, you will be expected to meet your deductible all over again before you can receive any discounts on your care. <\/span><\/p>\n

Talk to our team of experts to find out the most strategic method for using your dental insurance benefits before the year\u2019s end. We can\u2019t wait to help you save on the treatments you need to enjoy solid oral health for a lifetime to come! <\/span><\/p>\n
