<h4 class="dechead">On One Hand: Anthem's plans cover preventive services
Although Anthem's dental plans vary from state to state, the plans consistently cover preventive dental services, such as regular cleanings and diagnostic services like X-rays. Some plans also cover extractions, surgical procedures and periodontal treatments.
On the Other: Braces not covered
Some of Anthem's large employer dental plans cover braces, but the individual dental plans do not. Some individual dental plans do offer discounts on orthodontia, however.
Bottom Line
Most Anthem individual dental plans do not cover braces, although some plans operating in some states offer discounted prices on braces. Check plan benefits for details.
