Insurance to help protect your
income, practice and future

Customized insurance solutions for AAO members

Whether you own your own practice, work for a DSO or OSO, or are an orthodontic resident, you can benefit from exclusive insurance products designed specially to help protect you through all stages of your life as an orthodontist.

The American Association of Orthodontists has partnered with Lockton Affinity as the administrator of the AAO-Endorsed Insurance program. This program leverages group purchasing power, so you receive comprehensive coverage designed specifically for orthodontists at a member only rate. This way, you can enjoy the life you’ve worked hard to build, rather than paying high insurance premiums.
