3 Financial Options to Explore
Payment Plans
By spreading out the cost of treatment over a period of time (usually coinciding with the term of treatment), Dr. Kossowan is able to make treatment more affordable for our patients. To make the payments more affordable, it’s possible to extend the payments after treatment. And 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 with its own costs and benefits, and some methods work better than others for specific orthodontic issues (e.g., braces work more efficiently as the individual brackets adhered to the teeth allowing orthodontists a wider range of methods to move the teeth within the mouth, while clear aligner systems aren’t as effective in treating more severe issues. However, clear aligners has its advantages over braces like: invisibility, removability, and no food restrictions).
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.
