Use It or Lose It – Garland, TX

Don’t Waste Your Hard-Earned Money

Did you know that your dental insurance benefits don’t carry over into the next calendar year? If you’ve been waiting to see the dentist for whatever reason, now is the perfect time to get back on track. That way, you take advantage of the coverage that you’ve already paid for and get your money’s worth.

Dental Checkups and Cleanings

Out of all the services that we provide here at Orbit Dental, the most advantageous in terms of dental insurance is your dental checkups and cleanings. Most dental insurance plans cover two of these routine appointments per year, most of the time at no extra cost to you. By visiting our Garland office on a regular basis for this preventive care, you can keep your smile healthy and free from decay or infection.

At these routine checkup appointments, our dentists take the time to thoroughly examine your gums, teeth, and other oral structures for any indications of trouble. If they find something, we can get you the treatment you need to return to full oral health quickly and at a lower cost than if you were to wait to get help later on. In addition, eliminating plaque and bacteria that has accumulated and hardened through your cleaning, we can stop problems from developing in the first place. Plus, your teeth can feel and look their best just in time for the new year!

Additional Treatment

If you require treatment to resolve a cavity or gum disease, for example, you may need several appointments over the course of a few weeks or months. Starting this extensive treatment now before the end of the year allows you to use both this and next year’s benefits to your advantage, especially if you’ve met your deductible and you still have some benefits left over.

In general, additional necessary dental treatment is only partially covered, meaning that you’d need to pay some of the cost out of pocket. However, we can offer low- to no-interest financing to divide the price of treatment into smaller monthly payments.

Maximizing Your Benefits

Based on your needs, our doctors can formulate a treatment plan, and then our friendly team can help you better understand your coverage and give you tips for scheduling the dental procedures so that you get the most out of your benefits.

You’ve paid for dental insurance coverage, so you deserve to use it to keep your smile healthy. Don’t wait to visit us at Orbit Dental. Call us today!
