Sentinel Mouthguards
A new way to pay at Sentinel
Qualified Sentinel customers can now use HSA or FSA funds toward eligible purchases through TrueMed.
We partnered with TrueMed to make paying with pre-tax healthcare dollars simpler and more accessible for customers who already have those funds available.
The process is built directly into the Sentinel shopping experience. You can see HSA/FSA information while choosing your product and select TrueMed when you reach checkout.
AVERAGE TAX SAVINGS
30%
TrueMed states that qualified customers save an average of 30% when eligible purchases are paid for with pre-tax HSA/FSA funds.
ADDED SENTINEL COST
$0
There is no additional Sentinel charge for selecting TrueMed as your HSA/FSA payment option.
TrueMed is available to qualified customers. Individual eligibility and tax savings vary.
HOW IT WORKS
HSA/FSA Payment Is Built Right Into Sentinel
We wanted the experience to be clear from the beginning. There is no need to place an order first and then start searching for information about HSA or FSA eligibility.
On eligible Sentinel product pages, you will now see an HSA/FSA eligible message near the purchase options. Select Learn more and TrueMed explains the payment process before you reach checkout.
THE PROCESS
Two Simple Steps at Checkout
Select TrueMed
When you reach the payment section, choose Truemed - Pay with HSA/FSA.
If you are already signed into Shop Pay, select Pay another way or More payment options to locate the TrueMed option.
Choose How You Want to Pay
Qualified customers can use an HSA or FSA card directly. A personal credit or debit card may also be used with the reimbursement process provided through TrueMed.
WHAT IS TRUEMED?
Use Healthcare Dollars You May Already Have Set Aside
Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) allow eligible individuals to set aside pre-tax money for qualifying healthcare expenses.
TrueMed works with participating companies such as Sentinel to help qualified customers use those funds toward eligible purchases and navigate the related qualification and reimbursement process.
For Sentinel customers, the biggest advantage is convenience. TrueMed is part of the shopping experience rather than something you have to track down separately after placing an order.

CUSTOM NIGHT GUARDS
A Particularly Useful Option for Teeth Grinding and Clenching
For many Sentinel customers, the biggest benefit of this partnership will be having the option to use eligible HSA or FSA funds toward a professionally fabricated custom night guard.
Teeth grinding and clenching can place significant force on the teeth over time. A custom night guard creates a protective barrier between the upper and lower teeth and is made specifically for your individual dental anatomy.
Sentinel night guards are fabricated from your dental impression or compatible digital scan in our U.S. dental lab. We offer several designs because comfort preferences, grinding patterns, and durability needs are different for everyone.
THE SAVINGS
Why HSA/FSA Funds Can Make a Meaningful Difference
Average savings cited by TrueMed
The potential savings come from purchasing an eligible product with pre-tax HSA or FSA dollars instead of paying entirely with after-tax income.
This is different from a traditional sale or coupon. Sentinel is not reducing the product price by 30%. The potential savings come from the tax advantages associated with qualified HSA or FSA spending.
Actual savings depend on individual circumstances, eligibility, tax situation, and HSA or FSA plan.
HSA/FSA AND DENTAL INSURANCE
What If Dental Insurance Does Not Cover My Night Guard?
Using HSA or FSA funds is separate from traditional dental insurance.
Dental insurance determines whether and how much an individual plan will pay toward a particular appliance. An HSA or FSA, on the other hand, contains healthcare funds that may be used toward qualifying expenses.
That means even when dental insurance does not fully cover the cost of a custom night guard, a qualified customer may still be able to use HSA or FSA funds through TrueMed.
WHY THIS PARTNERSHIP MATTERS
Another Step Toward Making Custom Dental Care Easier to Access
Since 2012, Sentinel Mouthguards has focused on making professionally fabricated custom dental appliances easier to access without sacrificing fit, material quality, or personal support.
Customers can take an impression at home, use a compatible digital dental scan when available, work directly with our team, and have their appliance fabricated in our U.S. lab.
Partnering with TrueMed gives qualified customers another option: the ability to use healthcare dollars they may already have available.
If you already have healthcare dollars set aside and qualify to use them toward a Sentinel product, we want the payment process to feel just as straightforward as ordering the product itself.
