    referred a friend or family member to our office. We had such a wonderful

    response to the offer that we have decided to extend it until December 31, 2013.

    Here is the offer from the Spring 2013 newsletter:

    As a way to show our gratitude and an incentive to refer someone to College DriveDental, we would like to offer you a reward. After you finish reading this newsletter,write your name on the line below, and pass it on to a friend, relative, or coworker.

    If you can get one of them to come in to our office by December 31 and bring thisnewsletter with your name on it, you will receive a gift worth up to $259. You will have

    the choice of a Sonicare rechargeable toothbrush ($100), an Oral-B rechargeabletoothbrush ($100), or a complete at-home bleaching kit with custom bleaching trays

    ($259).

    EXPLANATION OF BENEFITS

    Thank you for all your referrals. We appreciate them

    Referral offerEXTEN

    DED!

    When a dental service is submitted to your insurance

    company, you will receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB) in

    the mail from the insurance company. This mailing is extremely

    important but is often overlooked or disregarded.

    The EOB provides a lot of information, such as your

    deductible, your portion of the service, what will be paid to our

    office, and your yearly maximum benefits. We ask that when

    you receive this in the mail, please take a moment to read it over.

    We feel that it will help you more fully understand your dental

    benefits and why you might get a bill in the mail from us.

    As always, if you have questions or need further clarification

    of the EOB, you can call our office. We will be glad to help.

    Please take a momen
