Dental Insurance: Use It or Lose It! December 31 marks the end of the plan year for most dental insurance companies. Dr. Todd L. Beck and his team at South Waterfront Dental take pride in doing everything possible to help you maximize your dental insurance.Your dental insurance policy allows for a certain dollar amount of coverage to be provided each year. If your maximum coverage benefit is not used during the year, you will lose those benefits, because unused coverage does not carry over to the next year. This is generally the case with most dental insurance policies.Although treatment is never dictated by an insurance policy, our experience has shown that careful planning can often maximize benefits. Most dental plans allow teeth cleanings two times a year. Check your policy documents to verify your specific coverage limits.If you are due for a cleaning, have dental treatment pending, or if you feel you may need treatment that hasn't been planned yet and you haven't maxed out your insurance benefits for the year, we encourage you to schedule an appointment before the end of the year.You may also participate in a Flexible Spending or Health Savings Account. In most cases,...more

An Arvada Colorado dentist teaches about baby teethA child's primary teeth, sometimes called "baby teeth," are as important as the permanent adult teeth. Primary teeth typically begin to appear when a baby is between age six months and one year. Primary teeth help children chew and speak. They also hold space in the jaws for permanent teeth that are growing under the gums. The ADA recommends that a dentist examine a child within six months after the first tooth comes in and no later than the first birthday. A dental visit at an early age is a "well baby checkup" for the teeth. Besides checking for tooth decay and other problems, the dentist can show you how to clean the child's teeth properly and how to evaluate any adverse habits such as thumbsucking. The Teething Cycle When teeth first come in, some babies may have sore or tender gums. Gently rubbing your child's gums with a clean finger, a small, cool spoon or a wet gauze pad can be soothing. You can also give the baby a clean teething ring to chew on. If your child is still cranky and in pain,consult your dentist or physician. Most children have a full set of 20 primary teeth by the time they are three years old. Keeping...more
