Use Your Medicare Flex Card Before It Expires: Get New Dentures at Melbourne Denture Service
Don’t Lose Your Medicare Flex Card Balance — Use It for New Dentures Before the Year Ends!
If you’re a Medicare Advantage member, there’s a good chance your plan includes a flex card or over-the-counter benefit. And here’s the part most people don’t realize:
👉 You can often use those dollars toward denture services — including new dentures, relines, adjustments, or repairs.
But there’s a catch…
Most flex card balances expire on December 31st.
If you don’t use the money, the insurance company keeps it — and you start fresh next year with a new balance.
At Melbourne Denture Service, we see this every year. Patients tell us:
“I wish I knew I could use my flex card sooner!”
So let’s make sure you don’t miss out.
What Is a Medicare Flex Card?
A flex card is a prepaid debit card that some Medicare Advantage plans give you. It’s meant to help with health-related expenses, and depending on your plan, it can be used for things like:
Dentures
Repairs and relines
Diagnostic mouth exams
Consultations
Certain dental services
Over-the-counter health products
Not sure if your plan covers dentures with the flex card? We can check for you. Just call our office and we’ll help you find out in a few minutes.
Why Dentures Are a Smart Way to Use Your End-of-Year Flex Benefits
If you’ve been putting off getting new dentures or fixing your current set, your flex dollars can make it easier and more affordable.
Here’s why this matters now:
✔ Your balance may expire on December 31st
Most plans do not roll unused funds into the next year.
✔ You can finally replace old, loose, uncomfortable dentures
If your dentures are hurting, slipping, or making it hard to enjoy meals, your flex card can help cover the cost.
✔ Many repairs and relines are covered
Even simple adjustments can make a big difference — and your flex card may cover them.
✔ It’s one of the few dental benefits seniors actually get
Dental coverage is limited under Medicare. So using your flex benefits for essential care is one of the best ways to protect your health and keep costs low.
Common Signs You May Need New Dentures
Not sure if it's time to replace your current set? You may need new dentures if you’re experiencing:
Difficulty chewing
Sore spots or irritation
Loose dentures that no amount of adhesive can fix
Frequent repairs or cracks
A change in your bite or facial shape
Dentures more than 5–7 years old
Even if you're unsure, Dr. Hook can evaluate your fit and comfort at a quick, friendly consultation.
