Does the military cover one cosmetic surgery for dependents and does that include dental work?

I know the one cosmetic surgery the military covers is lasik and only for the active duty member.Does the military cover one cosmetic surgery for dependents and does that include dental work?
Like what everyone else said, tricare does not cover cosmetic surgery for dependents unless you were in an accident and you need cosmetic surgery to fix the problem. Also, if you have breast cancer and get your breast removed, they will pay for you to get breast implants. If you need dental work ie braces, you would need to get an AER loan. This would help you pay for the braces and there is no charge for it.Does the military cover one cosmetic surgery for dependents and does that include dental work?
no, the military doesn't even cover cosmetic surgery for active duty. You'll have to use your own leave. The only ';cosmetic'; work the military may do is if it were in the line of duty.
The only time cosmetic work will be covered, is if it is needed due to some sort of accident or for other health reasons.
TriCare does not cover cosmetic procedures.
