Office Policies

Financial Policy

The orthodontic treatment fee we quote you includes diagnostic records, treatment planning, any appliances used throughout the course of treatment, regular and emergency orthodontic visits, documentary progress notes, and initial retainers.

If an appliance or retainers must be replaced due to loss, careless handling, or neglect, additional charges may be necessary to ensure optimal care.

The orthodontic treatment fee does not include any required restorative treatment, oral surgery, or other dental services.

Payment Options

We offer several payment options to aid patients in making orthodontic treatment fit into their budget. For orthodontic treatment paid in full by cash or check prior to the start of treatment we offer a 5% discount.

For patients who wish to pay over the course of treatment, we offer payment plans through a partnership with OrthoBanc. There is a one-time fee of $40 to establish the payment plan and inquiry is made to make sure your bank account history is in good standing. Prior to or on the day brackets are placed an affordable down payment is made toward the overall treatment fee and the remaining balance will be broken down into monthly payments. The number of months will be determined by how long the doctor estimates you will need treatment.

If you default on a payment plan, we will make every effort to accommodate patients with temporary difficulty. In cases of serious delinquency, treatment will be discontinued.

We also accept Care Credit, which allows you to pay for treatment over time. Care Credit does not require a down payment and has several no interest payment options. Please note that credit approval is required to obtain a Care Credit card.

We also accept all major credit cards.

Please be aware we offer a family discount to each additional family member that receives concurrent orthodontic treatment.

Returned Check Fee

A $50 returned check fee will be assessed to all returned checks and no future checks can be accepted as payment.

Broken Appointments

Appointment times are specifically reserved for you. If you must change your appointment, we request at least 24 hours notice to avoid a $50 per half hour cancellation fee. We also reserve the right to reschedule any appointment arriving 15 minutes after your reserved appointment time.
