The cost of braces or Invisalign depends on your treatment plan, so the best first step is a consultation. At John Orthodontics, Boca Raton families start with a complimentary visit and get a full breakdown of fees before treatment begins. We accept most major insurance plans, file claims for you, and offer discounts for paying in full and for multiple family members in treatment.
Your Treatment Plan Determines Your Cost
The cost of braces or Invisalign depends on what your smile needs. Treatment type, case complexity and estimated length all play a role, so a one-size price tag wouldn’t tell you much.
That’s why every patient at John Orthodontics starts with a complimentary consultation. Dr. Eliane A. John examines your teeth and bite, explains your options and gives you a clear treatment plan with every applicable fee spelled out. You’ll know your costs before anything begins, with no surprises down the road.
What Affects the Cost of Orthodontic Treatment
A few factors shape what you’ll invest in your smile:
- Type of treatment. Metal braces, clear ceramic braces, Pitts21 self-ligating braces, Invisalign and Invisalign Teen each have different costs.
- Complexity. Mild spacing takes less work than significant crowding or a bite correction.
- Treatment length. Longer treatment means more visits and adjustments.
- Early treatment. Some kids benefit from Phase I care, which can simplify treatment later.
- Retainers. Protecting your results with a retainer is part of the plan.
Dr. John walks you through each of these at your visit, so you understand exactly what you’re paying for.
Flexible Ways to Pay
We want great orthodontic care to fit your budget. John Orthodontics accepts:
- Cash
- Checks
- Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover
If you need special arrangements, talk with our team before treatment starts. We’ll review your options and find an approach that works for your family. You can find more details on our financial and insurance page.
Discounts That Help Boca Raton Families Save
Two built-in discounts can make treatment more affordable:
| Discount | Who it helps |
|---|---|
| Pay-in-full discount | Patients who pay for treatment upfront |
| Family discount | Households with multiple family members in treatment |
The family discount is a big help when siblings need treatment around the same time, or when a parent decides to straighten their own smile alongside their kids.
How Orthodontic Insurance Works
If your insurance covers orthodontics, your out-of-pocket costs go down. Many plans include a lifetime orthodontic benefit that’s separate from your regular dental coverage.
Here’s how we help:
- You complete the insurance questions on our patient questionnaire.
- Our team reviews your benefits to find the right course of action.
- Once treatment starts, we file your claims for you.
Plans vary, so we’ll go over your specific coverage at your visit. Keep in mind that if your benefits change during treatment, the responsible party covers any remaining charges.
