Goodness, that certainly is not kind to tell you that you your bite takes away from your appearance. Don't give that dentist a second thought!
I have Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance in Illinois, and when anyone in my family needs something done, I simply call them directly myself and ask about what they will cover (based upon the doctor's diagnosis). I have been surprised at what they have covered (a portion of a dental implant for my husband - but not the thingy he needed to wear while waiting for the initial part of the procedure to heal, a portion of braces for my daughter, etc.) The representative has always been good about giving me as much information as I requested. In fact, on one occasion, our dentist's receptionist used the information I had gathered ahead of time to adjust the claim she submitted to the insurance company so they would cover more of the procedure. She said so much of what they do can be categorized in different ways depending upon the insurance company.
Perhaps do the leg work for your physician, and then ask that she make a claim based upon this information. If she was at a loss to help you initially, this can only help to secure coverage.
Good luck!
