Why You Should Use Your 2015 Dental Benefits<\/span><\/h3>\n

Why would you pay for a service you never get to use? You wouldn\u2019t — and so you\u2019ve got to figure out how to make the most of your 2015 dental benefits before they go to waste. Any benefits or money leftover in flex spending, health savings accounts and traditional insurance plans all expire with the start of the new year. That means if you decide you need dental work in January or February, you\u2019ll have to meet your deductible all over again — and by that time, it could have risen dramatically. <\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to why use your dental benefits, it\u2019s not so difficult to figure out. It\u2019s your money — you deserve to make the most of it. <\/span><\/p>\n

How To Use Your 2015 Dental Benefits<\/span><\/h3>\n

Most adults won\u2019t use their dental insurance benefits simply because they don\u2019t know the best way to do it. We\u2019re midway through November, so you need to act fast — but you can still make the most of the money you\u2019re owed before time runs out. Take these steps immediately. <\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Call your dental insurance provider to find out how much money you have left to spend in 2015. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Find out what treatments are covered — just preventive? Are any cosmetic services included, too?<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Call<\/span><\/a> Antoon Family Dental to schedule a 2015 appointment for you and anyone else in your family immediately. <\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Let us know you\u2019re using your benefits before the end of the year so we can be prepared to help you file your claim. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
