About health insurance for orthodontics and braces
Orthodontic treatment and services, such as braces, can be covered under an extras health insurance policy. This means that either an extras-only policy or a combined hospital and extras policy can be taken out as health insurance for orthodontics or braces. But keep in mind, while orthodontics may sometimes be covered under major dental, the majority of orthodontics insurance policies categorise orthodontics on its own, and may even have different waiting periods to other dental categories.
What is orthodontics insurance?
Health insurance for orthodontics usually covers for treatments and services such as teeth straightening and corrections for overbite or problems with biting, chewing and jaw alignment, such as braces, plates, retainers and invisalign.
