What do you know about your Dental Insurance?



Many of us in our busy schedules and lifestyles struggle to keep up with all the insurances and policy details that we actually pay for. We keep our insurance cards buried with all of our other membership cards, credit cards, retail shopping points cards etc. As going to the Dentist is not a common routine, we often do not know much about our dental insurance policy or details of coverage.

It's not fun when we are asked questions about coverage that we cannot answer. So you're standing at the reception desk scrambling for what looks like your dental insurance card. "Is this it? " or "Oh here, how about this one". This can quickly turn into some unplanned embarrassment that just makes your experience at the dentist more stressful.
It all comes down to one issue. Before you go to your next office appointment, look through all your cards, find your policy and do some simple research. Call your insurance company and ask how to find out your coverages. See if you can login to an insurance portal and see everything for yourself. Find out what insurances are excepted at your dentist office. Just be prepared and you will make your life a lot easier. Know your coverage and decide what is best for you and your family!

#smilesarecontagious #dentistinphiladelphia #dentistinphiladelphia #myfamilydentalcare #asmilefeelsgood Many people say that a person’s face and countenance seems to change when they smile.

This is because a person is seen as more attractive when they smile. People tend to behave differently around smiling, attractive people. Studies in Penn State University have found that smiling people appear immediately as more trustworthy, relatable, courteous and reliable. People trust you more as it gives you the appearance of sincerity and joy, and people are drawn to these qualities in a person. Medical studies have reported that when a human sees another smiling face, the area of their brain called the orbitofrontal cortex responds in a way that is a lot similar to receiving a “reward.” People feel

8 Reasons You Shouldn’t Avoid the Dentist Modern dental care is all about prevention and comfort. We all know somebody who looks forward to going to the dentist. You know, the kind of person who gets positively giddy at the thought of plopping down in that big reclining chair. Then there’s the rest of us—for whom a trip to the dentist ranks right up there with visiting our accountants at tax time. But the truth is, there are lots of compelling reasons for seeing your dentist at least once a year, and ideally, every six months. AVOID MAJOR DENTAL WORK With regular checkups, your dentist can spot early signs of decay at a stage when the damage can usually be reversed, which means you’ll avoid the dreaded drill. “When it comes to cavities, it’s not an all or nothing situation,” says Fotinos Panagakos, DMD, a licensed dentist and Global Director of Scientific Affairs at Colgate-Palmolive. “The tooth enamel gets broken down over time, but your dentist can detect it early a

Just over 37 percent report less than daily flossing, and slightly over 32 percent sa y they never floss. Wow! That’s just crazy! There are so many other topics of healthcare, fitness, and bad habits etc. out there that everyone is always yammering about, but this subject looks like something that is severely neglected! But don’t take my word for it. Let’s just take a look at some clear details of this topic. This is a rather raw version of the truth, but when you eat, food gets lodged in between your teeth and gums. You say, “Hey I brush my teeth everyday”; well that’s gr
