Proudly Accepting Medicaid & NC Health Choice in Harrisburg
Our Harrisburg office accepts:
- NC Medicaid
- NC Health Choice (NCHC)
- Most major private dental and orthodontic insurance plans
We understand that insurance coverage can feel overwhelming. That’s why our knowledgeable team is here to help you understand your benefits, determine eligibility, and guide you through every step of the process.
Does Medicaid Cover Orthodontic Treatment?
In North Carolina, Medicaid and NC Health Choice may cover orthodontic treatment when it is considered medically necessary. This most often applies to children and teens, especially when bite or alignment issues affect oral health, function, or development.
Conditions that may qualify include:
- Severe crowding
- Overbite, underbite, or crossbite
- Jaw alignment issues
- Problems affecting speech or chewing
We’ll perform a full orthodontic evaluation and submit the required documentation for approval. Our team handles the paperwork and keeps you informed throughout the process.
For adults: Medicaid typically does not cover orthodontic treatment unless related to a documented medical condition. However, we offer flexible payment options to help make braces or Invisalign affordable for adult patients.
Orthodontic Treatment Options in Harrisburg, NC
At Zammitti & Gidaly Orthodontics, we offer comprehensive orthodontic care for children, teens, and adults, including:
- Metal Braces — A durable, reliable option for patients of all ages—especially effective for complex alignment and bite concerns.
- Clear Ceramic Braces — Tooth-colored brackets offer a more discreet alternative, making them a popular choice for teens and adults.
- Invisalign (Private Pay or Insurance) — Clear aligners are a convenient option for adults and responsible teens. While Medicaid typically does not cover Invisalign, we’ll help you explore financing options if aligners are right for you.
