Hey Medicare Advantage members!! For 2026 we will still be participating with Humana and you should be able to use your Essence PPO flex cards with us. Remember being out of network, does not mean you will not have any benefits with us, it does mean you may have a co-payment however. ***But it also means that your insurance is not dictating the treatment that you can and cannot receive at your dental office of preference!!***

THIS IS FOR OUR DELTA DENTAL PATIENTS!! Yay!!!!
Illinois law on the assignment of benefits in dental insurance was updated in 2025, effective January 1, 2026, to require insurers to pay providers directly when a patient assigns benefits. This new law, which aligns with the Illinois Insurance Code, mandates direct payments to dental care providers, including any applicable interest for delayed claims. Previously, some plans only assigned benefits to in-network providers, but this new law applies to both in-network and out-of-network providers.

Crisp air, warm sun, leaves falling, bonfires, football and hot cocoa...all things Autumn!! Be sure to read below for your Fall foods dental health!!

Apples: Known as "nature's toothbrush," their fibrous and crisp texture helps scrub away plaque and stimulates saliva production, which neutralizes acids.

Pumpkin: This seasonal staple is high in vitamin A, which is essential for developing tooth enamel. It also contains zinc, which is great for gum health.

Cranberries: The polyphenols in cranberries can help prevent plaque from sticking to teeth, but watch out for the high sugar content in many store-bought cranberry products.

Nuts: Almonds, walnuts, and pecans are rich in calcium and phosphorus, minerals that strengthen tooth enamel. Their crunchy texture also stimulates saliva.

Cheese and dairy: These products are packed with calcium and phosphate, which can help remineralize tooth enamel and raise the pH in your mouth to neutralize harmful acids.
