During the month of May, National Dental Care Month takes time to remind us of the importance of caring for our pearly whites.

Thaddeus P.Hyatt promoted preventative dental care in the early 1900s. Today, oral hygiene is learned at an early age. Brush twice a day, floss, keep the sugary snacks to a minimum and see your dentist twice a year.

A healthy smile requires continued healthy habits. Maintaining those habits reduces the risks of cavities and infection and the costs associated with long-term dental repairs. If it’s been a while since your last visit, understand that dentists today appreciate your fears. They will do everything they can to alleviate your anxiety and get your smile back on track

National Dental Care Month brings awareness just in time for a summer full of family reunions, weddings, and vacations – all times when we love to take pictures and smile! So, brush up on your dental care and check-up with your dentist.

This month, take the time to:

~Review your dental care habits. Remember, dentistry isn’t expensive, neglect is.
~Check-in with your dentist to ensure you are maintaining a healthy smile.
~Make the recommended adjustments to your routine or keep up with the healthy ones you already have!

Original Medicare (Parts A & B) does not cover dental, vision, and hearing. Part A may cover urgent, emergency care in these categories, but consistent check-ups, hearing aids, dentures, etc. are not covered.

Any related care must be paid for out-of-pocket if you are insured only by Medicare Parts A and B. However, some Medicare Advantage (Part C) plans cover dental, vision, and hearing care that Original Medicare alone does not.

Medicare plans that cover dental, vision, and hearing are hard to come by. If you need an affordable, full-coverage Medicare Advantage Plan that covers dental, vision. and hearing care, call the Medicare Strategist now at (912) 412-0244.
