We know that navigating open enrollment and finding the right health insurance for you has grown increasingly complex. If you already rely on an health savings account to meet your medical financial needs, did you know that you can use your HSA for dental services, too? 

At Crown Dental, we believe that delivering the royal treatment for all of our patients means educating them on their options for dental care and coverage. Here, we take you through some common procedures that are covered by your HSA, so you have time to book your appointment and use those funds before the new year. 

What Dental Services are Covered by My HSA? 

You might be surprised to learn that a significant number of dental services are covered by your HSA. Starting with routine dental cleanings and checkups, you can also use your HSA funds to cover any of the procedures from the following list: 

• Bonding
• Crowns
• Dentures
• Extractions
• Fillings
• Root canals 

Make sure when scheduling these appointments that you first check with your dental health insurance provider to confirm any co-pays that might be expected when you check-in. 

What Dental Services are Not Covered by My HSA?

Cosmetic procedures, like teeth whitening, are not covered by your HSA funds. Neither are dental products like dental floss, toothbrushes, toothpaste, or mouthwash. Those products are out of pocket expenses. At Crown Dental, we give all our patients a goody bag containing these items at the end of each appointment. 

Why Should I Use My HSA for Dental Services? 

Oral health is a great indicator of overall health, which is why it’s critical to keep up with dental cleanings and checkups. Don’t let the cost of dental services keep you from maintaining good oral hygiene.
