You may be putting it off until January when your schedule clears up, but this isn\u2019t necessarily the best idea. There are many benefits of getting a new crown before the year ends. This restoration is needed to keep your smile healthy, and by opting for one now, you can save your wallet. Read on to learn why you should get your new crown now and how your insurance plays a role in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why Should You Get Your Crown Now?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Crowns are often needed to restore teeth after an injury, tooth decay, or tooth loss. If you put off getting your dental crown, you could be putting your smile in harm\u2019s way. Here are a few things that could occur:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Exposure to bacteria:<\/strong> If your tooth isn\u2019t being shielded by a dental crown, it can endure more decay, or you could develop a painful infection. This is because it is exposed to potentially harmful bacteria in your mouth.<\/li><li><strong>Irritation of soft tissues:<\/strong> When the damage to your tooth has left it with a rough surface and broken edges, you could end up with sores and irritation of the soft tissue in the mouth.<\/li><li><strong>Additional damage:<\/strong> If your weakened tooth isn\u2019t protected, you\u2019re leaving it vulnerable to break down even more. Without having it treated properly, this will only become more severe. You could even end up in need of a root canal or extraction. In the end, getting a dental crown can help you to avoid a painful dental emergency in the future.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Does Insurance Play a Role?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have dental insurance, your unused benefits are likely to expire at the end of the year. Your annual deductible is the amount of money that needs to be paid out-of-pocket each year until you can take advantage of your benefits. Each January, this amount resets so you will be responsible for paying it again. If you\u2019ve already met your annual deductible for the year, you are much more likely to save on a crown by getting it now instead of waiting till the holiday season is over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now isn\u2019t the time to put off getting your crown! By giving your dentist a call now, you can save your smile and your money!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Author<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wolfedental.com\/dr-ben-wolfe.html\">Dr. Ben Wolfe<\/a> is an experienced dentist who has been working in the field for nearly two decades.
