End-of-the-year dental care is essential, especially considering holiday indulgences and expiring dental funds. You want to take advantage of your allowances before they are gone for good.

A team member can help you understand your plan's language and maximise coverage for last-minute dental treatments and services.

Sometimes, you can start treatment now under your current benefits and complete them early in the next calendar year. Consider treatments that may require more than one visit:

  • Restorative dentistry for damaged teeth
  • Splints for teeth grinding and clenching
  • Mouthguards for athletics and team sports

End-of-Year Evaluations and Dental Treatments

Checks and Cleans

If you’ve missed a check and clean this year, it’s not too late to book with the dentist. These appointments are vital to your ongoing dental health and well-being. Additionally, they are essential if you plan to indulge in holiday treats.  

Bruxism and Jaw Joint Health

Bruxism is a serious condition that can damage teeth, lead to severe discomfort, and even harm jaw joints. Your dentist can evaluate you for bruxism and TMJ before the end of the year. If you require treatment, we can schedule it before your benefits expire or start treatment now and complete it after the new year.

Restorative Dentistry and Tooth Sensitivity

Treating and restoring teeth is vital to oral comfort and ongoing dental health. If you have a broken or damaged tooth, this is an excellent time to book an end-of-year evaluation. Tooth sensitivity can also mean hidden decay or a compounding infection!

Consider Our Current Dental Specials

Dental specials change periodically, but as of this writing, you can take advantage of the following:

  • Professional Teeth Whitening Special
  • Free Dental Implant Consultations
  • No Gap Check-up, Teeth Clean, and X-Ray

Ask a dental team member for details, including limits and exclusions.
