Does Orthodontic Insurance Cover Braces for a 19 years Old Person?

My parents have taken orthodontic insurance from Delta Dental (Florida) and it states that I can opt for orthodontic treatment for up to 18 years of age. I need to get braces on because I find that my teeth are misaligned and it gives me a vampire kind of a look. I turned 19 couple of weeks ago and does that mean that I am no longer eligible for the treatment expenses? The insurance coverage has another 2 and half months to end and that would be in the month of July, 2011.

My question is that if I am covered until the coverage period ends, is it possible for the orthodontist to bill the half amount of braces expenses to the insurance company and the rest of amount would be paid by myself? Kindly suggest me?

kelin 		I don’t have any idea whatsoever you are talking about. Where the hell where you for the past so many years and didn’t you realized that your teeth were misaligned and gave a crooked kind of look? Or is it that the teeth became misaligned all of a sudden and you now have realized the need of an orthodontic insurance to pay for the cost of braces.

I should tell you that we Americans (including you) always have the habit of making the simple things complex and I don’t understand what kind of pleasure that they derive from it. Same is the case for yours. If you have realized the gravity of the situation and had opted for braces treatment couple of years ago, then things would have been far simpler than what you are experiencing at the moment. My words may seem harsh on you, but the thing is that it is a bitter truth and you got to realize it.
