How treatment works

Everyone’s smile is different. We base your treatment plan on your specific diagnosis. This involves x-rays, dental impressions, and photographs from which we make decisions about what type of treatment will bring you the best results.

Treatment time varies between one and three years depending on age, severity of the case, and our partnership in care-the partnership being a key ingredient.

Costs also vary depending on the type of treatment, and many insurance plans provide coverage. Orthodontic fees are more affordable than in the past, and the investment is worth a lifetime of healthy smiles.

Your initial visit is an important opportunity for us to get to know you and what you want to accomplish. We’ll give you a thorough orthodontic examination. Then we’ll make a recommendation and discuss options, explaining how long treatment should take and the cost and payment options.

We pride ourselves on taking the time necessary to explain the treatment process at each step of the way. The more you know about your care, the more confident you’ll be in the results.

Financial Options

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 including no money down and monthly payments for varying lengths of time. In addition, we offer discounts for payment-in-full prior to the start of treatment. We process most forms of insurance, and ask that you bring your insurance information to the intitial exam  so that we can work with you to maximize your insurance benefits. We also accept Visa and Mastercard.
