NJ probably uses the Salzmann Index to determine eligibility for orthodontia. The score required varies from State to State.
This will likely require prior approval and will be based on the child's Salzmann Index score.

If you have a severe case then they will. When you go to the orthadontist with Medicaid they usally first take pictures and do molds. Then they either fax or send them to Medicad and if the case is severe enough they will pay. But it usally takes about 6 weeks for them to approve it.
Medicaid started in the mid-60s.
