\"happyThe clock is winding down on 2017 — and when the ball drops on New Year\u2019s Eve, we\u2019ll be closing the book on one big year. If you and your family have dental insurance, you could also be saying goodbye to potentially hundreds of dollars worth of unused benefits!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Your dentist in Jacksonville wants to help you rescue those funds in November and December. Now\u2019s a great time to schedule a checkup and cleaning, complete any unfinished dental care, and take care of anything else you\u2019ve been putting off. Keep reading to learn how we can help you take advantage of your 2017 benefits before they slip away today! <\/span><\/p>\n

Dental Insurance Doesn\u2019t Roll Over<\/span><\/h2>\n

Many people fail to make the most out of their dental insurance benefits simply because they are not quite clear on how it works. Think of insurance more like a benefits plan — rather than covering you in the event of a catastrophic or unexpected event, having dental insurance is like signing up for a prepaid plan at your dentist\u2019s office. <\/span><\/p>\n

In exchange for a monthly premium that usually ranges around $50, you are eligible for discounts on the services you need to maintain a clean, healthy smile. Your insurance plan may pay up to $1,000 for care per annual year after you meet your deductible. But, because your benefits do not roll over, any money that is left over on December 31 will expire, and you will have to meet your deductible all over again in the next year. <\/span><\/p>\n

Healthy Smiles Are Built on Prevention<\/span><\/h2>\n

Your insurance works to help you avoid the need for costly and complex care by making preventive care \u201cfree.\u201d You pay for two checkups and cleanings with an annual set of X-rays through your monthly premium, so make sure you take advantage of these appointments from year to year. <\/span><\/p>\n

During a preventive exam, our dental hygiene team will remove plaque and all the tartar that has had the chance to build up in 2017. Then, we\u2019ll take X-rays if you haven\u2019t had any for the year. These help us get a more in-depth view of what\u2019s going on between and underneath the surface of your teeth. <\/span><\/p>\n
