If dental insurance is part of your compensation package, you don’t have much time left to use your remaining benefits.  For most insurance plans, the yearends on December 31, and that means if you have any remaining benefits or outstanding treatment you need completed, now is the time to make an appointment with our office.

If you don’t use them, you’ll lose them. Here are a few reasons to schedule outstanding treatments before the end of the year.

  1. Yearly Maximums- Unused benefits don't typically rollover, so use your yearly maximum and maximize your benefits.
  2. Premiums - Insurance is paid for through premiums; make sure those dollars are not being wasted. 
  3. Prevention is key to good oral health - Know your coverage and take advantage of the services covered. A specified number of regular cleanings and check ups to keep your teeth and gums healthy are usually covered services in the preventative section of coverage. Visits to your dentist and other preventative services, such as x-rays, will help detect and prevent more serious, extensive treatments down the road.
  4. Complete any outstanding treatment –You may not have dental insurance next year, or you may have additional procedures to cover. If your dentist has suggested treatment, now is the time to schedule it.

Contact Grove Dental today to schedule treatment that your 2012 insurance may cover:

  • General exams and cleanings
  • Fluoride treatments
  • Sealants
  • Fillings
  • Dental implants
  • Crown or Bridge work
  • Orthodontics
  • Oral Surgery
  • Periodontics
  • Dentures
  • Root Canal Therapy

Are you looking for a permanent solution to your tooth loss problems? Or, maybe after years of wearing dentures you’re ready to enjoy a more stable and permanent replacement to your missing teeth?  Losing several teeth due to an injury or gum disease can be upsetting.  Now, thanks to a new dental implant technique called All-on-4, patients can enjoy a full set of beautiful and immediately functional teeth in a single day!  

All-on-4 is one of the latest dental implant technologies available that gives patients a complete upper and/or lower set of teeth using only four implants.  Unlike traditional implant procedures that involve multiple appointments and months of healing time, All-on-4 patients receive custom-designed teeth in the same day. The result is a beautiful, new smile that looks natural, improves self-esteem and allows patients to experience the foods and activities they enjoy most.

Benefits of All-on-4

  • Permanent solution, lasting many years with proper care
  • Designed for immediate function with minimal discomfort and recovery time
  • Only 4 implants are used to achieve a permanent set of teeth, so the entire procedure can be completed in just one visit
  • Relieves the many frustrations of removable dentures by offering stability, durability and functionality in terms of eating foods and maintaining oral hygiene
  • Less costly than the traditional approach of replacing all of your teeth

Why wait weeks or months to receive replacement teeth?  At Grove Dental, we offer All-on-4 dental implants, and our dental specialists can help you achieve a beautiful, new smile in just one appointment.

Find out if you’re a candidate for All-On-4 Dental Implants. Contact Grove Dental today for a consultation.

Renew Your Smile and Confidence with Dental Implants from Grove Dental

We are all too familiar with the classic, child-like holiday song, "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth."  Missing teeth may be adorable for a young child, but for adults, both the health and emotional impact can be detrimental.  

This holiday season give yourself the gift of a new smile so that you can step into the New Year looking and feeling great. Whether you’re missing one tooth or multiple teeth, Grove Dental has the tooth replacement solution for you.  Dental implants replace missing teeth and restore your smile to the most natural appearance and function.

Using the latest in implant technology, Grove’s implants are virtually indistinguishable from other teeth, so after the procedure, you will have a full mouth of healthy teeth to show off.  The Grove doctors and specialists will care for you from start to finish.  You won’t need to visit multiple specialists or travel to different offices.  We can provide all of your implant care under one roof!

With years of clinical research and a remarkable overall success rate, dental implants offer the best long-term prognosis of any tooth replacement method.

  • Mouth is Restored to Natural State
    Implants from Grove Dental look and feel like your own teeth.  Enjoy restored speech and a renewed ability to comfortably eat the foods you love.  
  • Long-lasting
    Implants are durable like your natural teeth. With proper care, your implants can last a lifetime.
  • Tooth-saving
    Dental implants won’t alter or impact adjacent teeth.  They fill in the space of missing teeth to protect remaining teeth from unwanted shifting.
  • Improved oral and general health
    Implants stop the progression of jawbone loss that often follows tooth loss, maintaining the integrity of your facial structure.  Long-term oral health is also improved as implants allow easier access between teeth, rather than shifting teeth, which improves oral hygiene.

Don’t experience another holiday season singing "All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth." Contact Grove Dental today and schedule your initial exam and consultation to find out if implants are right for you.
