If you don\u2019t use it, you lose it!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Preventive Care is Often Fully Covered<\/strong><br>Most insurance plans cover cleanings, exams, and X-rays at little or no cost to you. If you\u2019ve been postponing a checkup or cleaning, now\u2019s the time to schedule it.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Delaying Treatment Could Cost More Later<\/strong><br>Have you been putting off a filling, crown, or other dental work? Small issues can become bigger (and more expensive) problems if left untreated. Using your benefits now can help avoid larger out-of-pocket costs in the future.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>FSA Funds Also Expire<\/strong><br>If you have a Flexible Spending Account (FSA), those funds usually expire at the end of the year, too. Don&#8217;t let them go to waste!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Let Us Help You Maximize Your Benefits<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Appointments fill up quickly as the year winds down, so don\u2019t wait!
