Miriam Said:

what insurance covers ceramic braces?

We Answered:

Well, your mom already have dental insurance so you can have her look up the benefits. In my case, my insurance only covers the metal braces and I had to pay close to $500 extra to get the ceramic braces just on top. I went with metal on the bottom because no one really notices your bottom teeth anyway. A lot of people get this combo as it is not as expensive as getting ceramic top and bottom.

good luck.

What kind of insurance covers braces entirely or at least most of it?

We Answered:

A lot of orthodontists have payment plans...all you have to do is have a down payment (ours wanted $500) and then you make reasonable payments so that the braces are paid for before you complete your treatment....there is also financing available at most orthodontist's offices...

The cheepest way (as far as intrest) is to do the payment plan. Usually there is no intrest and just a small paperwork charge added to the plan ($20-$50). Just talk to the Orthodontist. No matter what you do, they are expensive, and they do effect your health if your bite is really bad. It is easier the younger you get them. Good Luck....

I want to know if my insurance covers braces... but I can't read the thing!?

We Answered:

Primary teeth are your permanent teeth, and transitional are your baby teeth. But it's going to depend on WHY you think she needs braces, which one applies.

You'll need to go get your "free consultation" with an orthodontist, to have THEM tell you which one applies.
