Orthodontics belongs to the field of plastic surgery. The medical insurance card can reimburse the cost of going to the dentist. However, there are strict rules for the reimbursement of dental expenses. Only therapeutic dental treatment can be reimbursed by medical insurance, such as filling teeth, extracting teeth and treating periodontal disease and gingivitis. However, medical beauty projects cannot be reimbursed by medical insurance cards, such as expenses incurred by orthodontics and tooth whitening.
The best age for orthodontics is 10- 12 for girls and11-3 for boys. Because children's teeth are not fully developed, it is difficult to ensure the effect of orthodontics. It is recommended to take the child to the hospital for dental examination, and then the doctor will design an orthodontic plan, select orthodontic materials and wear orthodontic appliances according to the child's situation. Therefore, orthodontics is not covered by medical insurance unless it is specialized commercial insurance.
