When you consider the cost of orthodontic treatment, also consider the lifelong benefits of a beautiful, healthy smile. The cost of orthodontic treatment will depend on many factors, including the severity of the problem, its complexity, and its length of treatment.
Orthodontic treatment is an excellent investment in the overall dental, medical, and psychological well-being of children and adults. We realize that families and individuals have different needs in fulfilling their financial obligations. For your convenience, we offer a variety of payment options and will help you choose the plan with which you are most comfortable.
We process most valid forms of insurance and ask that you bring your insurance information to the initial exam so that we can work with you to maximize your insurance benefits.
Common Questions Regarding Insurance Benefits
There are many different agreements between insurance carriers and their subscribers. Each contract provides a different level of benefit. Orthodontic insurance generally differs from regular dental insurance in that each insured individual usually has a lifetime maximum benefit for orthodontic services. Payments are usually paid over the course of treatment as long as the coverage is in effect. Charges for lost or broken appliances are generally not covered by insurance.
To assist us in handling your insurance claims, we ask that you provide the name, address, and telephone number of your insurance carrier along with the policy holder’s name, date of birth, social security number. Although the entire orthodontic fee is your financial responsibility, we gladly will submit your insurance as a courtesy to you.
