The Cost of Orthodontic Treatment: What to Expect
Investing in orthodontic treatment is critical to achieving a radiant, confident smile. But understanding the costs involved can be challenging due to the various factors at play. We believe in providing transparent, personalized consultations, offering you a comprehensive understanding of your unique treatment cost.
Here is a breakdown of our most frequently recommended treatments.
- Invisalign Braces
As a VIP Diamond Plus Provider of Invisalign and Invisalign Teen, docbraces has transformed countless smiles using this advanced, nearly invisible teeth-straightening solution. Invisalign is a popular choice among our patients, offering a discreet alternative to traditional metal braces. Our expert orthodontists use 3D software to design custom aligners for precise teeth movement, making it a reliable, personalized treatment option.
- Cutting-Edge Clear Braces
Stay at the forefront of orthodontic technology with docbraces' range of clear braces. Our braces options, including nearly invisible ceramic braces, provide fast, effective results, aligning teeth properly and correcting bite issues. Our options are designed for comfort, efficiency, and discretion, meeting the diverse needs of our patients.
- Corrective Appliances
Beyond braces and Invisalign, docbraces also offer a variety of corrective appliances, such as palate expanders and space maintainers. These tools can help correct jaw alignment, maintain space for permanent teeth, correct oral habits, and expand the upper arch, among other functions.
Orthodontic treatment is not a standard package – it's customized to your needs. More complex cases may cost more due to the additional resources and time. However, at docbraces, we strive to make orthodontic treatment as accessible as possible, with many patients paying just $150 to $250 per month, depending on their case. (Please note that Invisalign does require a higher initial payment due to manufacturing costs.)
We understand that cost is a significant consideration when planning for orthodontic treatment. Our team is devoted to helping you find a financing option that suits your budget. We offer several strategies to make payments more manageable and help you save money in the long run.
Early intervention is often a cost-saving strategy, preventing the need for more extensive treatments later on. By booking a consultation for your child around age 7, our specialists can identify and anticipate existing issues. Guiding dental development at an early age often results in lower overall treatment costs.
We also make it easier to help manage the cost of treatment.
- Direct Insurance Billing
docbraces can help you make the most of your insurance benefits by offering direct billing to insurance providers that facilitate it. Many employee benefit plans cover orthodontic treatment, with insurance typically covering 30% to 50% of treatment costs up to a limit. Using the higher coverage plan first is beneficial if you and your partner have benefit plans. The lower-income earner can then claim the remainder as a tax credit.
- Flexible, Interest-Free Payment Plans:
docbraces offers flexible, interest-free payment plans that can be spread over the treatment duration, making orthodontic care more accessible. With no credit checks required, payments can start as low as $150 to $250 per month!
Understanding and managing the cost of orthodontic treatment can be overwhelming, but the docbraces team is here to support you. We are committed to making your journey toward a healthier, more confident smile as smooth and affordable as possible. We're excited to work with you to create a tailored financial plan that fits your budget and allows you to receive the orthodontic care you deserve. Book a free consultation today to learn more!
