Are orthodontics covered by health insurance?
Most health and dental insurance plans generally do not cover orthodontics.
The few plans that do typically offer limited orthodontic coverage, for example, 50% coverage up to a maximum of $2,000 per lifetime. These plans also usually have a waiting period of about 2 years before the orthodontic benefit becomes available.
