FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS - WILL INSURANCE PAY FOR ORTHODONTIC CARE?

Many patients have orthodontic benefits as part of their dental plan. Please check with your insurance or benefits manager as to the extent of your coverage. Not all patients with dental coverage have orthodontic coverage. Orthodontic insurance generally differs from regular dental insurance in that an insured individual usually has a lifetime maximum benefit for orthodontic services. This benefit is paid as a percentage of the orthodontic fee until the benefit maximum has been reached.
