Frequently asked questions about braces in Philadelphia, PA
No. Braces are quoted after the examination because treatment length, bite correction, crowding, and any extra services can change the final plan. The office does not publish a flat price for braces, so the exam is the point where the fee is confirmed.
Not always. Invisalign is published at $3,500 to $7,000, but the best choice depends on your alignment needs and treatment goals. Some cases are better suited to braces, while others can work with clear aligners. The exam helps sort that out.
Yes. Interest-free payment plans run 12 to 24 months for qualified cases. A $15,000 case is about $625 to $1,250 a month, which can make a longer treatment plan easier to manage than one large payment.
Oral and IV sedation are available in house. The sedation consultation is complimentary, a $574 value, and it includes a CBCT scan and a panoramic X-ray. That gives the team a clearer look before treatment begins.
Same-day emergency slots are kept open daily. If something comes loose or feels sharp, you do not have to wait long for a check. That can be especially helpful during the early stages of braces treatment.
