are braces covered by insurance?

We Answered:

Some insurances will cover some of the cost after you pay a co-pay but I have never heard of them covering them 100%. My insurance which is Blue Cross will let me get them for a co-pay if $1500.00 which is a great deal.
If you can't get them covered at all there are a lot of companies who will finance the cost and let you make payments like a medical credit card.

Are braces covered by dental insurance?

We Answered:

They usually provide some coverage. From what I have heard it is not much. Check you policy. If not, I would encourage you to visit this site: www.healthsavings.ourperfectcard.com I signed up online over 3 years ago now for all my dental needs and they have saved me thousands of dollars. Orthodontics are included also, I paid around $2200 for mine....instead of the regular price of over 4 grand. They even had my very affordable benefits active in 2 hours and able to use it the very same day. Good Luck and Hope this Helps.

Terri Said:

does braces covered by dental insurance or medical insurance?

We Answered:

It is covered under your dental insurance, if your plan has that type of coverage. Call your dental insurance company and ask them, because every policy is different. You probably will have a deductible, then a percentage that you have to pay, and sometimes insurance only covers up to a maximum (like 1000 or 2000 dollars) you really just have to call and ask.

Alternative to braces, covered by separate dental insurance?

We Answered:

Invisiline( don't know if i spelled that right). but it depends on how bad your teeth are. what the dentist does is charge the insuranse for the braces fee and you pay the difference.

Sonia Said:

Are braces typically covered by insurance?

We Answered:

My insurance paid 50%. The book my mom got from her job had the information of dental and I looked in there and it had it listed 50% for orthodontics. If you know who you are going to use as your orthodontists go to them and give them your card and usually they can find out the coverage for you. When I went to get my counsultation 2 years ago they got the info to give me everything as down payment, payments each month and how long I'll have them on. You just will have to see with who you choose.

Isaac Said:

Is it possible to get Braces covered by insurance?

We Answered:

That's called orthodontics. Many dental policies will cover it.

I've never heard of one that covers 100% before - unless he was on welfare. Some state children's health insurance programs will cover orthodontics 100% for insured kids.
