Payment & Financing FAQ

How do you know if one needs orthodontic treatment?

Our list of insurance providers above is not comprehensive, so don’t sweat it. If you want to confirm whether your plan is in-network with us, please call our office and we can check for you!

How much will insurance cover?

Depending on your insurance coverage and the treatment plan, the total amount paid out by your insurance provider can vary.

During your initial consultation, our front office staff can check your orthodontics coverage to help you determine what portion of the treatment will be paid for by insurance.

What are the signs or symptoms of orthodontic problems?

The cost of treatment can vary depending on the treatment route. When you come in for an initial consultation, our orthodontists will walk you through their treatment plan and associated costs.

Can you be too old for braces?

We are proud to offer zero-down financing for treatments. Instead of paying an upfront lump sum like many other providers, the cost will be split into monthly payments which are due over the course of your treatment.
