Easy Orthodontic Financing

At Dr. Doug Orthodontics, we believe every patient deserves access to high-quality orthodontic care. Because no two smiles are the same, treatment costs vary based on individual needs. Our team is committed to helping you understand your options and creating a financing plan that fits your budget so you can move forward with confidence.

Before beginning treatment, we clearly explain all costs, payment options, and what to expect, making the process straightforward and stress-free.

What Flexible Payment Options Do You Offer?

We offer a variety of payment options to help make orthodontic care affordable and manageable:

• Flexible in-office payment plans tailored to your budget
• Acceptance of most major credit cards
• Assistance in maximizing insurance benefits, including out-of-network coverage when applicable

Our goal is simple: to make orthodontic care accessible without compromising the quality of your treatment or your experience.

What’s Included in Your Orthodontic Treatment Fee

Your orthodontic investment with Dr. Doug Orthodontics includes comprehensive care from start to finish, such as:

• A complete orthodontic evaluation and diagnostic records
• A personalized treatment plan based on your specific needs
• All active treatment visits throughout care
• Any appliances required during treatment
• Emergency visits related to orthodontic appliances
• Ongoing monitoring to ensure progress stays on track

We believe in transparent, all-inclusive care so there are no surprises along the way.

What Isn’t Included

While your treatment fee is comprehensive, certain items are not included:

• Dental care provided by your general dentist, such as cleanings or fillings
• Replacement appliances if lost or damaged due to neglect
• Additional treatment is required due to trauma or lack of appliance care
• Fees resulting from changes in insurance coverage during active treatment

If any of these situations arise, our team will review all details with you before proceeding.

Are Monthly Payment Plans Available?

Yes. Many patients choose to spread the cost of orthodontic treatment into manageable monthly payments. Our team will work with you to design a payment plan that fits comfortably within your budget and review all details before treatment begins.

How Does Orthodontic Insurance Work?

If your dental insurance includes orthodontic benefits, it may help reduce your out-of-pocket costs. We accept many major insurance plans, including:

• Delta Dental
• Cigna PPO
• Guardian PPO
• United Concordia
• United Healthcare PPO
• Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield and Empire Premium Care Network

If we do not participate directly with your insurance plan, we still handle all paperwork and will often maximize out-of-network benefits so your costs may be similar to in-network care.

Can Your Team Help Me Understand My Coverage?

Absolutely. Insurance can be confusing, and our knowledgeable team is here to help. We verify benefits, explain how your plan applies to treatment, and submit claims on your behalf. If your insurance changes during treatment, any remaining balance becomes the patient’s responsibility, and we will communicate clearly about next steps.
