It’s funny how time flies. 2020 is (thankfully) in our rearview mirror and we are just starting to look forward to all that 2021 has to offer. It is hard to believe that it is already tax season! The great thing about tax season is that once all the time-consuming paperwork is filed, you get to look forward to your tax refund. Whether your refund is big or small, there are many ways that you may choose to use this sudden influx of money. Some will invest it. Some may use it for bills. Some may even use it for a vacation! There is no wrong way!
Invest in Your Smile
At Gray Orthodontics, we know that the cost of orthodontic treatment is a concern for many people. We never want money to be a barrier that would keep a patient from achieving a perfect smile. We work hard to provide financing options that work for all budgets and have staff that can help you figure it all out. And at this time of year, when many people are expecting their tax return check to show up any day, we want to suggest that you might consider investing some or all of it in your smile or your child’s smile!
Insure Your Smile
We’re proud to accept most major dental insurance providers, which can drastically reduce your out-of-pocket expenses. Dental insurance works just like health insurance. We bill your treatment cost to your insurance provider, and they pay a portion of your bill. When you combine your savings from insurance and use some or all of your tax refund as a down payment, it could be a BIG boost to help lower your monthly bill!
We’ll Help You Smile
There are lots of payment plan options that our team is happy to help you understand. For instance, do you have a Flexible Spending Plan or a Health Spending Account through your employer? That can be used for orthodontic treatment! So can credit cards, and there are even credit options that are dedicated specifically to health treatments that can have lower interest rates. We will always be transparent about your bill so that there are no surprises. Once you get your tax return and decide how much you want to invest in orthodontics, we can work together to find a payment plan that works for your budget.
Get Ready to Smile
Whether you’re ready to book your first appointment, or you need a little bit more guidance, we’re here to help! We know that all of this can sometimes be confusing! But we’re in the new smile business, and we want to make it as easy as possible for all our patients and parents. That includes helping you understand your cost, financing options and how to use your tax refund to pay for treatment. Call us today to learn more!
