Are braces typically covered by insurance?!


Question: I've heard they're not. We have Delta Dental insurance. I'm waiting for a reply from them. But is anyone familiar with this?

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.

It depends on your plan. I have a MetLife plan and they cover 50% of orthodontia work, with a max of $2000 (they'll pay a max of $2000). Like a typical insurance company though, they do like to try to weasel out of paying anything whenever the opportunity presents itself.

I have Delta Dental insurance. I just got braces & it covers it. It covers 1,000 for me.
Some insurance doesnt cover braces & some do

my parents have delta too and it covers up to $2,000 per kid, but i think not all plans cover braces.
