The answer really depends on which dental insurance you have. An insurance company may cover some of the procedure's costs, but not all. There are specific dental insurance companies that you can look into that are there specifically for cosmetic dentistry. Find out more at http://www.dentaletc.com/.

Does insurance ever cover cosmetic surgery?

Cosmetic surgery isn't covered under most medical insurance policies. Usually, in order for an insurance company to cover cosmetic surgery, it needs to be considered "medically necessary". For example, if you need reconstructive surgery, your insurance company will cover it only if it was due to an accident or certain illness (like breast cancer).

Does the typical dental insurance policy cover cosmetic work?

The typical dental insurance policy does not cover cosmetic work for the same reason the typical health insurance policy does not cover cosmetic work for the body - it is not considered a need. Even if such work was covered, there would be a waiting period before cosmetic procedures could be done. A person's best bet for finding affordable pricing for cosmetic dental work is through a dental discount plan. Discount plans are not insurance. The plans simply offer discounts at participating dentists for set procedures, including cosmetic. There are no waiting periods with discount plans, and no pre existing conditions to be concerned with.
