If you're a parent considering orthodontic treatment for your child—or even for yourself—you may be wondering: Do braces count as medical expenses? The short answer is yes, in most cases they do. At Beecroft Orthodontics in Fredericksburg, VA, we’re here to break it down so you can make the most informed decision when it comes to both your smile and your finances.

When you think about a confident, healthy smile, properly aligned teeth are often the first thing that comes to mind. However, for individuals with buck teeth — where the front teeth noticeably protrude — smiling, speaking, or even eating can sometimes feel uncomfortable. At Beecroft Orthodontics, we specialize in diagnosing and treating conditions like buck teeth with customized, compassionate care for children, teens, and adults alike.
