Des Plaines, Illinois – September 18th, 2024 – Orthodontic Experts acknowledges the importance of orthodontic treatment, whether medically necessary or for aesthetics. If you are experiencing difficulties chewing, breathing, speaking, or are having self-confidence issues due to a subpar smile, then orthodontics is the reliable fix. However, when it comes to state insurance such as Medicaid, securing approval for braces from the state can be tough. Fortunately, Orthodontic Experts has the solution. If you have been denied for braces treatment by state insurance, then you are eligible for Orthodontic Experts’ special pricing on Traditional Metal Braces.

Before securing an approval for orthodontic treatment from state insurance, an orthodontist must take detailed notes per the modified Salzmann Index – a regulated scoring system that determines the severity of orthodontic cases. This framework is used to establish whether a handicapping malocclusion, otherwise known as a misaligned bite, is present within the patient’s mouth. While your orthodontist is the one recording the results and, thus, how many points each patient receives, it’s necessary to remember that there is a structure to be followed. With every type of misalignment and its severity, the patient receives points. Records and photos are taken and submitted alongside the score sheet. For state insurance to approve orthodontic treatment, the state must deem the case as medically necessary. If the state’s criteria for braces approval is not met, then, unfortunately, the patient will be denied by the state insurance for no-cost braces treatment.

However, Orthodontic Experts understands that there are various issues caused by a misalignment – whether the state deems it medically necessary or not. They also believe that everyone has the right to achieve their dream smile, regardless of financial situations. That is why they are offering an affordable braces payment plan on a two-year treatment plan with Traditional Metal Braces. All you need to get started is a state insurance denial letter and make an appointment with the Orthodontic Experts location near you. Upon a successful orthodontic consultation, you may be able to have braces put on the same day and begin your $195/month payment plan.
