With the end of the financial year rapidly approaching on 30 June, there's never been a better time to use your dental insurance benefits. It is also the perfect time to review your coverage to make the most of your investment in dental insurance.
What You Should Know about Private Dental Insurance Benefits
Since every plan is unique and benefits vary, it's a good idea to review your dental insurance with our friendly and knowledgeable team, who can help you sort them out.
If your plan is based on the financial year, it starts on 1 July and ends on 30 June. Most dental insurance plans have a yearly limit on the benefits you can use during the year. Dental benefits don't typically roll over, so you will lose them if you don't use your benefit dollars in the current year.
Most dental insurance plans allow coverage for two preventive teeth cleans and check-ups per year to help protect your smile from common dental concerns like tooth decay and gum disease. When you're consistent about visiting your Coffs Harbour dentist every six months, using these benefits also protects your overall health and budget, as we can detect most concerns before they become more problematic.
Your dental benefits generally allow for two categories of coverage—general treatment, such as x-rays, dental fillings, and simple tooth extraction, and major coverage for procedures like root canals, dental crowns, tooth implants, and extraction.
Use Them Before You Lose Them
Is it time for your next teeth clean and check-up? Do you have diagnosed treatment you haven't completed yet? Now is a great time to arrange your booking at our Coffs Harbour dental clinic to ensure you complete the procedures before 30 June.
We invite you to talk with our team about maximising your dental benefits before the end of the financial year.
