The team at Bracesetters Orthodontics is experienced in helping their patients afford orthodontic treatment in Middletown
If you’re thinking about getting braces for either your child or yourself, then be sure to carefully consider the cost. Today’s braces certainly aren’t cheap. The current economic climate makes it hard on many families with a tight budget. However, there are many financial options to explore.
Payment Plans
Many orthodontists such as Dr. Skrobola and Dr. Schlosser are able to make treatment with braces more affordable for their clients in Middletown NY by spreading out the cost of treatment over a period of time, usually coinciding with the term of treatment. To make the payments more affordable, ask your orthodontist if it’s possible to extend the payments beyond the removal of your braces. Third-party financing through groups like Springstone Patient Financing or Care Credit are also available to help patients pay for their orthodontic treatment.
The Right Type of Braces
There are several orthodontic treatment options to explore. Each has its own costs and benefits. Some methods, though, work better than others for specific orthodontic issues. For example, braces work more efficiently as the individual brackets adhered to the teeth allow orthodontists to use a wider range of methods to move the teeth within the mouth. In contrast, clear aligner systems such as Invisalign aren’t as effective in treating more severe malocclusions (the misalignment of teeth). Invisalign clear aligner trays have advantages over braces. They are practically invisible to the casual observer and are removable.
Dental Insurance
Make sure that you check with your insurance provider before you start treatment to be certain that you’re covered under your dental plan. It’s also possible to purchase supplemental orthodontic insurance if your current coverage isn’t right for you.
Initial Consultation
The best way to estimate the cost of a plan of orthodontic treatment is to schedule an initial consultation with Dr. Skrobola or Dr. Schlosser. Early intervention in orthodontics can ensure a more effective and permanent treatment outcome. Once a patient’s orthodontic needs have been evaluated, you can then discuss the treatment options available, payment plans, and insurance coverage.
