Does Dental Insurance Cover Braces and Invisalign?
Some dental insurance plans include orthodontic benefits for children, teens, and/or adults. Coverage depends on your specific plan and may include age limits, waiting periods, deductibles, coinsurance, a lifetime orthodontic maximum, or restrictions on eligible treatment. Invisalign may be covered when a plan includes benefits for clear aligner treatment, but coverage is not guaranteed.

In-Network vs. Out-of-Network Orthodontic Benefits
An in-network plan may provide contracted fees or other plan-specific savings. Out-of-network plans may also offer orthodontic benefits, but reimbursement and patient responsibility can differ. Our team can help explain your estimated benefits and any applicable in-network discounts before you decide on treatment.
How Much Will Insurance Pay for Braces?
Orthodontic insurance often differs from routine dental coverage. Some plans pay a percentage of eligible treatment charges up to a lifetime orthodontic maximum. Others have different payment schedules or exclusions. For example, if treatment costs $5,000 and your plan is estimated to contribute $1,500, your remaining estimated balance would be $3,500 before any other applicable adjustments. This is an illustration, not a coverage quote.
What If My Insurance Does Not Cover Orthodontics?
You can still explore orthodontic treatment. Smile City Orthodontics offers flexible 0% in-house payment plans, subject to office terms, and third-party financing options. We will review the estimated total treatment fee and payment arrangements with you before you begin.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does insurance cover adult braces?
Some plans include adult orthodontic benefits, while others limit coverage by age. We can help check your plan.
Does insurance cover Invisalign?
Some plans cover Invisalign or other clear aligners under orthodontic benefits. Eligibility varies by policy.
What is a lifetime orthodontic maximum?
It is the total amount a plan may pay toward orthodontic care for an eligible member over the covered lifetime, subject to plan terms.
Can I use two dental insurance plans?
Possibly. Coordination-of-benefits rules determine how primary and secondary plans process claims; having two plans does not guarantee full payment.
What if I change insurance during treatment?
Future benefits may change or stop. Please tell our team about any coverage changes promptly so we can review potential impacts.
