Will my Medicaid cover Invisalign?

Hello there,It's possible that state assistance would cover the cost of orthodontics if it is considered medically necessary and the patient is under the age of 21.  Invisalign is an excellent solution for teens and adults who have teeth that are gapped, crowded or misaligned.  I would suggest scheduling a complete evaluation with an orthodontist who accepts your insurance to determine your options after having your wisdom teeth removed. Good luck and I hope this helps. Follow me if you have more questions.Sarah Thompson, DMDSt. Louis, MO area (O'Fallon, IL)Real Self 100

Pretty good bet that Medicaid will not cover the third molar extractions or the Invisalign treatment.However, removing the wisdom teeth will eliminate the cause of the tooth movements-twisting, moving forward, becoming crooked.Invisalign treatment will guide the teeth into proper alignment to promote good dental health, function and beauty.You may not attain the "perfect teeth" you remember, but Invisalign treatment will deliver a healthy, functional bite that is good looking.Definitely worth the investment at any age!
