Payment Options and Financial Policy

 

Orthodontic treatment is an excellent investment for the well being of children and adults. Financial considerations should not be an obstacle to obtaining this important health service. We have payment plans to suit different budgets, including a no-down-payment option. We work hard to make orthodontics affordable.

Because of the various problems that each patient presents, the degree of treatment difficulty may vary as well. Therefore the fees quoted are based upon the treatment requirements for that particular patient. Our fee for a Phase I, Phase II, or full Comprehensive treatment is an all-inclusive fee. This means that it covers any required records (models, photographs, x-rays) & treatment planning, initial appliance placement, all monthly appointments, emergency appointments, and the first required retainer(s) and a 24 month period of retainer check/adjustment appointments. Additional charges will be incurred for lost or broken appliances after the initial retainers.

Following the 24-month retention period the patient may desire that they be seen on a semi-annual basis for which there would be an office visit/retainer adjustment fee.

 

Insurance
We are happy to bill any insurance for you and we do accept insurance assignment. This means that once your insurance has been verified, we can deduct your insurance benefit from our total fee and make financial arrangements on the balance left. Insurance quotes are not a guarantee of payment. If the insurance company does not honor its payment agreement, you become financially responsible for the entire remaining balance of your account.
