What affects fees
Complexity, estimated treatment time, appliance choice and the services included can affect the fee. A meaningful quote should follow an individual assessment.
Financial Information
Orthodontic fees vary with the treatment plan. The useful comparison is the complete proposed fee, what it includes and how insurance or payment arrangements apply.
What is included
Ask whether records, appliance placement, routine visits, emergency visits, removal and retainers are included and what could create additional charges.
Dental insurance
Orthodontic benefits differ between plans. Confirm lifetime maximums, eligible percentages, age restrictions and reimbursement rules directly with the plan.
Payment arrangements
Compare the total fee, not only the monthly amount. Ask about the initial payment, payment schedule and accepted methods.
