Don’t leave money on the table

Dental insurance is a use-it-or-lose-it benefit. Every dollar of your annual maximum you don’t use by your plan’s year-end simply disappears.

★★★★★
“Excellent experience! Loved the doctor and especially the painless teeth cleaning. They were also much more transparent and upfront about pricing, with everything clearly explained and no surprises. Another big plus is that they’re open on Fridays, which made scheduling much easier. Highly recommend!”

Questions about your benefits

Straight answers, no fine print.

When do my dental benefits reset?

Most dental plans run on the calendar year and reset on January 1. Some employer plans use a different plan year, so we check your exact dates for you at no charge.

Do unused dental benefits roll over?

Usually not. Unused annual maximums typically expire when your plan year ends. A few plans offer limited rollover programs, and we can tell you whether yours does.

I've already met my deductible. Does that matter?

Yes. Once your deductible is met, more of your care is covered for the rest of the plan year, which makes this the best time to finish recommended treatment.

Can I split treatment across 2026 and 2027?

Often, yes. We can plan multi-step treatment so part is done before your benefits reset and the rest is covered by next year's maximum.

How fast can I get in?

We guarantee a cleaning appointment within 2 weeks, and we see dental emergencies the same day. December fills quickly, so we recommend booking now.

Do you check my benefits for me?

Yes. Tell us your insurance and we will verify your coverage, remaining maximum and deductible before your visit, free of charge.
