What’s Included in Your Orthodontic Treatment Fee
Your orthodontic investment covers all essential components of your care at MK Orthodontics, ensuring a smooth and successful treatment experience from start to finish.
Your treatment typically includes:
- Comprehensive diagnostic records such as X-rays, photos, and digital scans
- A personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs
- All active treatment visits for braces or clear aligners
- Orthodontic appliances and adjustments throughout treatment
- Emergency visits related to orthodontic appliances
- One set of retainers after treatment is complete
- Final evaluation to confirm successful results
We are committed to providing complete, continuous care every step of the way.
What Isn’t Included
While your treatment fee is comprehensive, certain items may fall outside of standard orthodontic care:
- Replacement retainers if lost, damaged, or not properly maintained
- Dental procedures performed by your general dentist
- Specialty treatments recommended by outside providers
- Additional treatment is needed due to injury or lack of appliance care
- 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 for Braces and Invisalign?
Yes. Many patients prefer to spread the cost of treatment into manageable monthly payments. We will walk you through all available options and help you choose a plan that fits comfortably within your budget.
How Does Orthodontic Insurance Work?
If your insurance plan includes orthodontic benefits, it can help reduce your out-of-pocket costs. Many plans offer a lifetime orthodontic benefit that is separate from regular dental coverage.
Here’s how we make the process simple:
- We verify your benefits before treatment begins
- We explain how your coverage applies to your treatment
- We file claims on your behalf
- We keep you informed throughout the process
If your insurance changes during treatment, any remaining balance will become the patient’s responsibility.
Can Your Team Help Me Understand My Coverage?
Absolutely. Our experienced team is here to guide you through your insurance benefits and answer any questions you may have. We’ll help you understand your coverage clearly so you can make confident decisions about your care.
