The Treatment Coordinator will greet you and make sure you have all the necessary paperwork completed for your orthodontic treatment. They will take free diagnostic records, including digital photographs and any necessary x-rays.
The Treatment Coordinator will acquaint you with the office and the type of orthodontic treatments available such as metal and ceramic braces and Invisalign. Next, the doctor will conduct a thorough examination of the teeth, bite, and facial balance.
After the doctor listens to your smile goals, we make recommendations on the best treatment options. The Treatment Coordinator will discuss the fee and payment options with you to help select a monthly payment plan that is comfortable and affordable for your family. If the patient is ready for treatment, we may be able to start their treatment that day saving time away from work or school.
We take only the necessary x-rays to complete a thorough diagnosis. The orthodontist uses these records to develop a customized orthodontic treatment plan for each patient desiring braces or Invisalign. These records are helpful in tracking the progress of treatment as the teeth move while under orthodontic care.
Get Invisalign for the same price as braces. With affordable payment options, orthodontic treatment can fit your family’s budget.
The first appointments to start metal or clear braces or Invisalign usually take from one to two hours. After these initial appointments, you will typically be seen every 4 to 8 weeks for an adjustment, which takes approximately 30 to 40 minutes. If you cannot keep an appointment, please call us as soon as possible so we can help you reschedule to keep your treatment on track. If you need to cancel a visit, it may be difficult to reschedule later in the day because after-school appointments tend to be booked further in advance.
At your first free exam, the Treatment Coordinator will present the treatment fee and payment options and discuss any insurance you may have to cover braces or Invisalign.
If you can provide us with your insurance information at the time you call for your appointment, we will gladly contact your insurance company and provide you with an estimate of your benefits before you come for the free exam. This makes it easier for you to know your out-of-pocket cost, and discuss fees and various payment options before treatment begins.
We have payment plans to suit most monthly budgets, including a 24-month, interest-free option. We are able to file with most insurance companies and accept payments directly. We work hard to make orthodontics affordable.
In an effort to keep orthodontic fees down while maintaining the highest level of professional care, we have established this financial policy:
In cases of serious delinquency, treatment will be discontinued, although we will make every effort to accommodate patients with temporary difficulties. If you have additional financial questions feel free to contact one of our Patient Advocates at 913-624-9990 or by email at patientadvocates@fry.ignitrodev.com.
If you have insurance, our staff will help you determine the coverage you have available. We ask that you assign your insurance benefits to us. The balance will be arranged for you to pay. We help in every way we can in filing your claim and handling insurance questions from our office on your behalf.
