For people with dental insurance or a health savings account fund, then there are benefits and money available to cover dental and oral surgical costs. But these could expire at the end of December unless used! In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa , CA, Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeons talk about using your remaining dental benefits.
Using Your Dental Insurance Benefits
Your dental insurance coverage provides a number of benefits that you can use for necessary procedures during the year. If you don’t use them soon, the hectic holiday season could limit your availability, and ours too! In addition, if you have a health savings account, your funds could potentially expire at the end of December too. You’re then left in a waiting period for your 2023 benefits to become available. But contacting our team can start the process of addressing your concerns with oral surgery, so we can restore your smile to optimal function, health, and yes, beauty.
Planning Treatment
To begin, we will talk to you about your concerns, and also speak to your dentist or orthodontist should you be referred to our office. Next, we will use advanced CBCT imaging to take a detailed look at not only the surfaces of your smile, but the interior as well, so we can identify the position of impacted wisdom teeth and other concerns. We then create a personalized treatment plan to correct the issues. Our team has experience with serious concerns, including facial trauma, as they’re part of the Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital Trauma Team. We also use local anesthetics and dental sedation to help you enter a calm and relaxed state, even if you are undergoing an advanced procedure or have dental anxiety. We want every experience at our office to be comfortable.
Oral Surgery
The surgery could take as little as 30 minutes for tooth extraction, or possibly more for implant placement, jaw surgery, facial trauma treatment, or other more involved procedures. We then provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule a follow up visit to ensure everything is healing and progressing as it should. Now is a good time to see us as there is time to begin treatment before the holiday season is in full swing. We would love the chance to help you start 2023 with a strong and more attractive smile, one that functions properly and restores your overall quality of life.
