Do you have dental insurance or possibly a health savings account? If so, then you have benefits and funds that will expire at the end of the year unless used! But we can help. In today’s blog, your team at Healthy Smiles Family Dentistry in Houston, TX, talks about using your dental benefits before they expire!
Your Dental Benefits and Health Savings Account
Do you have a dental insurance plan? If so, then you likely have benefits available to use in 2026 that will expire at midnight on December 31st. Likewise, if you have a health savings account, then you could be accruing funds that will expire at the end of the year unless you use them. Often, these do not roll over! Instead of losing these, why not put them to good use, helping you greet a new year with better oral health and a brighter smile?
Starting with a Checkup and Cleaning
To start the process of using your 2026 dental benefits and health savings account funds, our team will begin with an initial dental exam. During this procedure, we will look closely at your smile with advanced digital imaging, making a diagnosis with precision. We can then create a treatment plan to address the concerns we find before what you have expires. In the same visit, we will also conduct a cleaning procedure to help remove plaque and tartar from the smile, which helps lower the risk of tooth decay and gum disease.
Our Treatment Options
Our team offers a host of treatments to help smiles of all ages in your family. For issues like TMJ disorder and bruxism (teeth grinding), we can offer relief with an oral appliance. For kids, we could lower the risk of tooth decay with fluoride and/or dental sealants. Cosmetic dentistry helps brighten and reshape smiles, and our restorations can even take on injury, decay, and infection with custom fillings and crowns. To replace missing teeth, we could offer custom bridges, dentures, and even implant dentistry.
If you have any questions about how to use your dental benefits and health savings account funds before they are gone, or if you want to set up your last checkup and cleaning before the year comes to a close, then contact our team today to learn more and get started!
