Insurance For Braces?

By Orthodontics Editor, on July 13th, 2009

My child will be needing braces soon, and with todays economy 4,000 – 8,000 is a great deal of money. Our dental plan does not cover Orthodontics, because they see it as cosmetic. Does anyone know of dental Insurance that helps to cover this cost? We are in NC, and BCBSNC has nothing.

  I would encourage you to visit this site: http://www.healthsavings.ourperfectcard.com I signed up online over 5 years ago now and they have saved me thousands. My braces only cost $2000 because of this great plan. All services are included in this very affordable plan. Root canals, xrays, exams, cleanings…etc. They even had my benefits active in 2 hours and was able to use it the very same day. Good luck.

  I dont think so. Braces are considered cosmetic, so most insurances will not cover them unless it is some kind of medical need. I think a friend of mine had insurance that covered partial, but I think the insurance was with the place he worked at. Hope you find something
