Use Them Before They Expire December 31st
Time Is Running Out
It’s November 1st, and the countdown is on — your dental insurance benefits expire December 31st. Every year, patients in Reno miss out because they wait until the last minute, only to find the schedule full. Don’t let that happen to you.
At Futch Dental, we’re welcoming new and returning patients now — but appointments are going fast. Many Reno families who waited until December in years past weren’t able to get in before the deadline. Don’t risk losing the coverage you’ve already paid for all year.
Why This Matters
Most dental insurance plans run on a calendar year, which means:
- You get two hygiene visits, exams, and x-rays each year.
- Most plans also include $1,000–$1,500 in coverage for treatments like fillings, crowns, or periodontal care.
- On January 1st, anything unused simply disappears — no rollover, no refunds.
If you’ve already met your deductible this year, now is the smartest time to complete treatment. Even better — with careful planning, many patients can maximize two years of benefits by starting a larger treatment plan in November or December and finishing in January.
Get Ahead of the Rush
- Hygiene Visits: Haven’t scheduled your second cleaning yet? Now’s your chance.
- Treatment Needs: Have a cavity, crown, or other care you’ve been putting off? Let’s handle it before your coverage resets.
- Future Smile Goals: Thinking about Invisalign® or cosmetic treatment? Ask us about a complimentary benefit check to see what your insurance may cover.
Healthy Mouth, Healthy Body
Great oral health is more than a bright smile — it’s linked to your overall wellness. Untreated dental issues can contribute to conditions like high blood pressure, respiratory disease, and a weakened immune system. Starting the new year with a clean, healthy smile is one of the best investments you can make in yourself.
