What about insurance?Many dental-insurance providers cover orthodontic treatment to some extent. If your dental plan is one of them, Invisalign may qualify as orthodontic treatment. Talk to your insurance provider to determine the extent of coverage for your treatment.Invisalign is not considered cosmetic, but it is considered as orthodontia. Many insurance providers DO NOT cover orthodontia. This is not only straight from my dentist, but my insurance provider as well, and I DO have invisalign, which I did have to pay for out of my pocket. Many dentists do offer some sort of health care credit (like a credit card), such as Care Credit.
That would depend upon the terms of the policy, but probably not. Most dental insurance does not cover orthodontics, and if it does, it probably wouldn't include Invisalign. That's mostly considered to be a cosmetic choice in appliances. Your policy may cover a portion of what regular braces would cost, and you would pay the difference out of pocket.
Medical insurance does not cover invisalign braces. These aren't considered necessary and regular braces are a lot cheaper if they were covered.
Dental insurance and Medicade will cover braces.
No plans fully cover invisalign. They are mostly considered as extra coverage so it is only covered at about 50% such as what a bridge or root canal would cost.
Masshealth dental insurance will cover braces with prior authorization. Depending on the dental plan and type of braces, up to 50% of coverage is available for braces. This determination is available once the orthodontist office submits your claim to Masshealth.
Does Michild dental plan cover braces in Michigan.
That depends on the coverage of your insurance, but there are insurance companies who definitely allow dental braces coverage. However, it is still best to double check with your provider about the terms that goes along with dental braces coverage. For instance, most health plans only covers orthodontic treatments (partially) for minors or children under 18. If you're planning to get a dental braces, but your health plan doesn't include orthodontic coverage (e.g. teeth whitening, dental braces, amalgams) then what you can do is to buy supplemental orthodontic insurance.
It depends on how high the insurance covers. Because each insurance plans vary in detail, it can cover from 10 to 100 percent.

Dental insurance does not always cover major procedures, such as braces or other orthodontic care. Sometimes, plans will cover these expensive procedures, but only after a policyholder has been paying premiums for a certain amount of time. Pay attention to any potential lags in coverage to avoid surprises. Few things would be worse than getting a child fit for braces only to find out that the parent has to cover the entire bill because of an exclusion in the fine print of a dental insurance policy.
