You definitely don’t want to lose your money, especially in today’s tough economy. But that’s exactly what will happen if you don’t use your remaining 2018 dental benefits by December 31.
Since you pay for this benefit, you are entitled to use the full amount each year. Any unused amount will be lost forever. In addition to the financial loss, you could also suffer the unnecessary loss of necessary dental care.
But it doesn’t have to be that way. An inexpensive problem – a chipped or damaged tooth, a broken crown or filling, preventive gum care – could be solved before it becomes an expensive problem. If you need a more complex or extensive procedure – a root canal, new crown, bridge, denture or implant – you can start now and finish the work after December 31 when your new benefit year begins with the full amount! And for those procedures with higher co-pays or treatment fees, our Care Credit program can give you easy access to flexible, no-interest financing and affordable payments for up to 12 months upon credit approval.
