Dr Dental, Does Dental Insurance Cover Braces and Orthodontist
Question: My 13 year old needs to have braces. I been told this by our family dentist. Right now I been paying cash for our family dental care needs since all we normally have going on is our twice a year check ups and cleaning’s. If I get dental insurance will it help to cover braces?
Answer: We do provide many plan options for orthodontic services. I would suggest reviewing either our HMO dental insurance plans and or our dental discount plan for saving on braces. We do have some PPO plans that provide limited benefits for orthodontic services but they would have a year waiting period before benefits would be effective for braces.
