Is orthodontic care expensive?
Orthodontic fees have not increased as fast as many other consumer products. When orthodontic treatment is implemented at the proper time, treatment is often less costly than the dental care required to treat the more serious problems that can develop years later.

In addition, many insurance plans now include orthodontics. More information is offered under the “Services” section of this web site.
Cost depends on the severity of the orthodontic problems and sometimes on the age of the patient. We have standard payment plans, and may also customize a payment plan for you. FEES: If you pay in full at the start of the treatment there is a fee discount. There is also family discount for additional members of the family especially if they are being treated at the same time. We accept VISA, MASTERCARD and DEBIT CARDS for your convenience. Orthodontic therapy may eliminate the need for other medical and dental treatment. The physical and psychological benefits usually last a lifetime, which makes orthodontics one of the best investments in healthcare and quality of life.
Orthodontic treatment is indeed very expensive because the average cost which starts with the treatment of the braces is around 3000 dollars. For the Invisalign treatment, the cost is around $6,000. If you dont have any good orthodontic insurance policy from any popular company like Aetna, Delta Dental etc, then it is likely that you would find very difficult to pay for the treatment so incurred in the orthodontic treatment.
