Don’t Let Your Private Health Insurance Dental Benefits Go to Waste – Use Them Before June 30!
Are you fully using your private health insurance dental extras? As we approach the end of the financial year, it’s important to check your dental coverage and book any outstanding appointments. Many Australians forget to utilise these benefits before they expire, so don’t miss your chance to get the most from your health fund. Remember: use your dental extras before June 30 or lose them!
When Do Dental Extras Expire?
While some health funds reset dental benefits on December 31, many popular plans in Australia follow the financial year calendar, meaning your benefits will expire on June 30. This means you have a limited window to take advantage of any remaining dental coverage before it resets.
Why Maximise Your Dental Benefits Now?
Private health insurance dental extras usually cover essential services like:
Dental check-ups
Professional teeth cleaning
X-rays
These preventive treatments are often partially or fully covered, helping you maintain excellent oral health without breaking the bank. Using your dental extras now can help detect early dental issues, avoiding costly repairs in the future.
Beyond routine care, many health funds also provide rebates on restorative treatments such as fillings, crowns, and bridges. If you need more comprehensive dental work, using your benefits before June 30 can help reduce your out-of-pocket costs.
Cosmetic Dentistry and Dental Extras
Some health insurance plans offer partial coverage for cosmetic dental procedures like teeth whitening, composite fillings, or porcelain veneers. If you’ve been thinking about improving your smile, now is the perfect time to book a consultation and see what your dental extras can cover.
