If you have private health insurance with dental cover, now is the perfect time to check your benefits. Many health funds reset their annual dental limits at the end of the year, which means unused benefits don’t roll over. In other words: use it or lose it. The end of the year is also a busier time of year for dentists, so getting in early can help ensure you get an appointment at a time that suits your schedule. If you’re due for a dental visit, it’s time to get moving!
