Tax Season Savvy: How Uncle Sam Can Help You Kick Start Your Smile Makeover

Tax Season Savvy: How Uncle Sam Can Help You Kick Start Your Smile Makeover

Clear skies and perfect weather – it must be April. That means hello, Spring…and tax season. Yes, it’s that time of year again.

As you get those receipts and W-2 forms in order, the days leading up to April 15th is also prime time to do some financial planning. While we will not deny that tax season is a stressful time for most, it does present great opportunities for self improvement – especially when it comes to one’s health. CNBC reported that, so far, the average 2024 federal income tax refund is $3,145. We don’t know about you, but we see three-thousand reasons to kick start a glow up journey.

Here’s how Uncle Sam opens the financial door at Truman Orthodontics Henderson to a smile makeover.

Your Teeth and Taxes

Let’s talk about the underrated power of HSAs and FSAs. They are savings accounts that allow you to put aside funds for certain expenses – namely medical. 

The tax benefits included with HSAs and FSAs offer potentially sizable savings in key ways:

• HSA contributions are tax deductible
• HSA and FSA funds grow tax-free
• HSA and FSA-eligible medical expenses are not taxed

Because orthodontic care is a vital component of oral health, certain treatments are often HSA or FSA eligible. While HSAs may allow one to carry funds forward, FSAs generally operate on a “use it or lose it” policy. This means any money unused is forfeited at year’s end. 

Got questions? We’ve got you covered. The TruCrew is happy to help get the most out of those HSA and FSA benefits. It’s just one of many ways Truman Orthodontics shows its care and commitment to our patients. 

In Good Hands

Unlike your tax preparer, you’ll actually look forward to visiting a certain orthodontist office tucked away in a lovely desert community. Personalized care, a friendly staff, and a game room? Sign us up! Truman Orthodontics is that increasingly rare example of private practice medicine done right. Dr. Zach Truman and the TruCrew have provided high quality orthodontic care to Henderson and Las Vegas patients for two decades. 

First things first: no drills, no shots. The key difference between dentists and orthodontists is that they use noninvasive tools and methods to properly and gradually align your teeth and jaw over time. Furthermore, Truman Orthodontics Henderson specializes in metal and ceramic braces, along with Invisalign and TruSmile clear aligners for adults and teens. In short, our clinic offers treatment and financing solutions that fit your lifestyle and, of course, your budget.

Financial Flexibility

Truman Orthodontics Henderson provides among the most comprehensive and flexible finance options available. Paying in full? Great – there’s a discount for that. Putting down a deposit? Let’s look at your insurance coverage to tackle that remaining balance. Also, did we mention our zero-interest in-office financing program? 

Appointment anxiety – especially regarding cost – is common. The TruCrew is happy to address any concerns during a complimentary in-office or virtual appointment.

A Lasting Investment

That tax return is the sign you’ve been waiting for to take the ortho leap. 

Your smile is among the most lasting investments in one’s physical, mental, and social well-being. With a little tax season savvy and top-notch orthodontic guidance, you’re well on the way to that perfect smile.
