Braces help achieve more than just straight teeth. By correcting gaps, overbites, and crooked teeth, braces will improve your overall oral health. Problems like gum disease, tooth decay, and cavities can be prevented with braces, since straight teeth are more easily cleaned and maintained.  

Braces, however, can be very pricey and may seem too expensive to get, even if insurance covers some of the cost. Because braces effectively prevent dental diseases and complications, braces qualify to be paid for using a Flexible Spending Account (FSA). An FSA is an account that you can place a portion of your income in, specifically reserved for health care costs not covered by insurance. Therefore, you can use any FSA money you accumulated for the initial exams, x-rays, surgeries, and appliances associated with the orthodontic treatment. 

By using your FSA money on braces, you are avoiding having to forfeit the money left in your account, since most unused FSA money will not roll over to the next year. In addition to avoiding losing the funds in your account, you will also save on taxes, since the portion of your income placed into your FSA is not taxed. Thus, instead of losing your FSA money, you could improve your or your child’s oral health by spending the funds on braces!
