How Much Do Braces and Invisalign Cost? Insurance & Payment Explained
What affects the cost of orthodontic treatment, how orthodontic insurance works, and how payment plans at Harmony Orthodontics make braces and Invisalign affordable.
By Dr. Gabriela Aranda, orthodontist ·

What affects the cost
Every smile is different. The biggest factors are how much movement is needed, how long treatment will take and which appliance you choose. A simple case finishing in under a year costs less than a complex bite correction requiring two years.
How orthodontic insurance works
Many dental plans include a separate lifetime orthodontic maximum, often paid in installments during treatment. Bring your insurance card to your free exam and our team will verify benefits and file claims for you.
Payment plans
We offer flexible in-office payment plans that spread the cost over the length of treatment. HSA and FSA funds can be used as well.
Get your exact cost
The only way to know your exact cost is an exam. Your free consultation includes a personalized treatment plan, timeline and written estimate — with no obligation.
