No-Interest Financing

Enjoy low monthly payments with zero interest added. This flexible option helps make braces or Invisalign® affordable for every budget.

Multi-Family Member Discount

When more than one family member starts treatment, you’ll receive a discounted rate. It’s our way of supporting families who choose care together.

Automatic Monthly Payments

For added convenience, we offer automatic drafts from your checking account or credit card—making payments effortless and always on time.

What Your Orthodontic Treatment Fee Includes

Your investment covers far more than just braces or aligners. At River City Orthodontics, we believe in providing comprehensive care with no hidden fees. Your treatment fee includes:

  • Diagnostic records and digital imaging
  • All orthodontic appliances tailored to your treatment plan
  • Every in-office visit, including adjustment appointments and emergency visits
  • One set of retainers once treatment is completed

Our mission is to deliver exceptional orthodontic treatment that fits comfortably within your budget, while providing the healthy, confident smile you deserve.

Do You Accept Insurance?

If your insurance covers orthodontic treatment, you will receive the benefit of reduced personal costs. Many insurance policies have a lifetime orthodontic benefit that is distinct from regular dental insurance. Remember that insurance policies vary and we will review your insurance to determine the appropriate course of action. Once our team starts to transform your smile, we will gladly accept and file insurance assignment on your behalf to make sure your benefits are maximized.

Frequently Asked Questions

We want every patient to feel confident and comfortable when it comes to planning for orthodontic treatment. Here are some of the most common questions families in our community ask about payment plans, insurance, and budgeting for braces or Invisalign®.

Can I start treatment even if I’m not ready to pay the full amount upfront?

Absolutely. Many of our patients begin treatment with a small initial payment and a flexible monthly plan. Our goal is to make orthodontic care accessible, so you don’t have to delay treatment because of financial worries.

Yes, we do. We offer interest-free payment plans so you can spread out the cost of treatment without paying anything extra. During your consultation, we’ll help you choose the option that feels most comfortable for your budget.

You can still receive affordable treatment. Many of our patients don’t have orthodontic coverage and choose one of our monthly payment options. We’ll work with you to create a plan that fits your financial needs so treatment remains within reach.

Definitely. Transparency is extremely important to us. You’ll receive a clear, detailed breakdown of all fees before you start treatment, no surprises, no hidden costs. We want you to feel fully informed and confident in your decision.

Families are always welcome here, and we offer multi-family member savings to help make treatment more affordable. If two or more members of your family begin treatment, our team will make sure you receive the best available pricing.
