DD needed four fillings and two sealants.
We found out she had the cavities in early December at her routine cleaning appointment. With everything going on (action packed December) I thought it would be easier to wait until January/February to make the appointments for the fillings.
*palm to forehead*
That was so dumb! And the kicker is I *know* better. I *know* how to make dental insurance work for you. AND I didn't even realize I screwed up until after DD's fillings appointment.
Our insurance is an incentive plan. They pay 100% up to $1k for routine dental needs. This means we just maxed out DD's dental benefits for this year.
AND we'll have to pay about $100 out of pocket.
We barely used any benefits in 2013, so if I would have just found *a* day in December to do some of the work we wouldn't be paying anything.
Can't believe I so totally dropped the ball on this!
Crap! (& the other four letter words too!)
Stupid Mistake...
