Year‑End Dental Benefits in Marlborough: Use Them Before You Lose Them

Why November matters

Many plans renew on January 1. If you have unused preventive benefits or an HSA/FSA balance, now’s the time to use them toward needed care at our Marlborough practice.

Where to start

  • Preventive visits: Exams and cleanings help catch issues early—often covered at a higher percentage.
  • Pending fillings or crowns: Address small problems now to avoid larger treatment in the new year.
  • Aligner refinements: If you’re in treatment, ask whether refinements or retainers can be scheduled this year.
  • Whitening for the holidays: Great gift idea—ask about take‑home kits or in‑office sessions.

Local scheduling tips

  • Appointment slots fill fast in November—book early for a convenient time.
  • Ask us to coordinate treatment steps so you can maximize this year's and next year's benefits if needed.

HSA/FSA reminders

  • Qualified expenses may include aligner therapy, night guards, and medically necessary restorations.
  • Keep receipts for your records; we can provide detailed statements on request.

Not sure what’s covered? We’ll verify benefits and outline options up front so you can plan confidently.

Ready to make the most of your benefits? Schedule a visit and we’ll help you create a smart, year‑end plan.
