How Can You Make Aligners More Affordable?
While there are lots of teeth straightening and bite alignment correction options, we strongly recommend getting treatment from a professional orthodontist. Each practice offers its own pricing and payment programs . You can find a great doctor by researching patient testimonials and before-and-after images of smiles that you think are ideal.
You can also investigate the following cost-effective options:
Ask about payment plans
Ask if the practice has a first-time patient discount offer
Use pre-tax dollars from an HSA/FSA benefit plan
Apply for financial assistance if you qualify

HOW CAN I ESTIMATE THE COST OF CLEAR ALIGNERS?
Reach out to an orthodontic specialist to get quotes and a better understanding of their pricing. You can ask questions about how much clear aligner trays can cost, what the total estimate of treatment may be, and how payment plans may be structured to best fit your financial situation.
IS IT OKAY TO USE DENTAL INSURANCE FOR CLEAR ALIGNERS TREATMENT?
While most dental insurance plans cover some part of orthodontic treatment, it is important to contact your dental coverage provider or employment benefits representative to understand your dental coverage plan.
DO I HAVE TO PAY EXTRA FOR A BROKEN OR LOST ALIGNER?
When inquiring about pricing, you should ask your orthodontist about their policy on any aligners that may need replacing. Your provider may have a separate charge for replacing lost or broken aligners, but they may offer replacements as part of their initial treatment plan.
