Do you have dental insurance or a health savings account? If so, then you have benefits and funds that may expire unless you use them! In today’s blog, your team at Brooklyn Periodontics and Implantology talks about putting your dental benefits to good use to help your gums and even replace lost teeth with dental implants.
Your Dental Benefits and Health Savings Account
If you carry dental insurance coverage, then you have earned and paid for benefits that will expire at midnight on December 31st unless used. For some, there could be a waiting period before your 2027 options are available to use. If you have a health savings account, then you have funds that have accrued throughout 2026 that may expire unless you use them before December 31st. Don’t leave this on the table! Talk to our team, there may be a way to use these to help boost gum health with periodontic treatment, or to even replace missing teeth with dental implants.
Initial Exams
To begin, talk to our team! We can help you understand your benefits and what is available to use, and what this should cover. We can then take a look at your smile to assess the state of it. If you have periodontal disease, then we could discuss periodontic treatment to manage the issue and help you avoid tooth loss. We could offer everything from deep cleanings to laser treatment to help your smile. Our team is ready to help address these serious concerns, so you can feel confident in your smile.
Periodontics and Implant Dentistry
With periodontics, we can use a deep cleaning to remove harmful buildup from the teeth and roots. We can also employ laser dentistry to trim away diseased tissues and even reshape the gum line as needed for better esthetics. Our team can offer options like Platelet Rich Plasma to help the treated areas heal faster, and we can manage the issue with Supportive Periodontal Maintenance.
If you have missing teeth, we could offer a replacement for a single lost tooth with an individual dental implant. But we can also use multiple posts to secure a bridge with dental implants, or even offer a full smile for those with total tooth loss. In fact, All-On-Four can support a full smile with just four dental implants per arch, and this can be completed in only one visit.
If you have any questions about how to put your dental benefits to good use, then contact our team to learn more.
