The Cost of Orthodontic Treatment in Rhode Island: What You Need to Know

  • Providence Orthodontics
  • August 29, 2024

Orthodontic treatment is a big step for many Rhode Island families, but it can lead to a healthier smile and more self-confidence. At Providence Orthodontics, we understand that the cost of orthodontic treatment is a crucial factor in making this decision. While specific pricing can vary based on individual needs and treatment plans, this guide will provide an overview of what you can expect when considering orthodontic care in the Ocean State.

Understanding the Costs of Orthodontic Treatment

Orthodontic treatment encompasses a variety of options, each with its own cost structure. Traditional braces and Invisalign are two popular choices offered at Providence Orthodontics. While both methods aim to align and straighten teeth, the materials and technology involved can influence the overall cost.

  • Braces: Traditional braces, available for children, teens, and adults, involve the use of metal brackets and wires. This time-tested method is excellent for correcting a wide range of dental issues, from minor aesthetic adjustments to more complex bite problems. That being said, they are generally the most affordable orthodontic treatment for aligning the teeth.
  • Invisalign: Invisalign offers a more discreet option for orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is a transparent, removable aligner system that gently shifts teeth into place. Adults and teens who would rather have a less conspicuous treatment plan often choose this option.

Insurance Options for Orthodontic Treatment

One of the first steps in managing the cost of orthodontic treatment is understanding your insurance coverage. Although the details could differ greatly, orthodontic coverage is available through many dental insurance plans. At Providence Orthodontics, our team is well-versed in navigating insurance policies and will work closely with you to maximize your benefits.

  • Review Your Policy: If you want to know how much orthodontic treatment will cost, you should check your insurance policy. Some plans may cover a portion of the cost for braces or Invisalign, while others might have specific limitations or exclusions.
  • Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA): If your employer offers an FSA, you may be able to use these pre-tax dollars to pay for orthodontic treatment, further reducing your out-of-pocket expenses.

Financing Plans & Payment Options

Recognizing that orthodontic treatment is a significant financial commitment, Providence Orthodontics provides a variety of payment options designed to fit different budgets. Our aim is to make quality orthodontic care accessible to all families in Providence and beyond.

  • Customizable Payment Plans: We offer flexible payment plans that allow you to spread the cost of treatment over time. This approach helps ease the financial burden and enables you to manage your budget effectively.
  • Low Monthly Payments: Our practice is committed to simplifying the process of achieving a beautiful smile. You may get the care you need without worrying about how you’ll pay for it since we have affordable monthly payment options.

Gabriella P.
I can't say enough good things about Providence Orthodontics! If you are considering becoming a patient, do not hesitate. Dr. Collins and the staff are all wonderful, kind and incredibly helpful. I'm finishing up Invisalign and the process could not have been more pleasant. Over the past year from my initial consultation to now getting fitted for retainers, they have always been flexible with my schedule even when I needed a last-minute appointment. I'm so happy with the results and would absolutely recommend them to anyone considering Invisalign. They are the best!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your fantastic review, Gabriella!😊 We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with Dr. Collins and our team. Your satisfaction with the Invisalign process means a lot to us. We appreciate your recommendation and look forward to seeing you again!🦷✨
jen R.
Both my children have had their orthodontic care at Providence Orthodontics. The staff and clinicians have been nothing but wonderful. Everyone is kind and friendly, and they take their time to do things right. They have always been willing to work with me on payment plans within my budget. The care here feels personalized, versus like a factory. Highly recommend!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words, Jen! We're thrilled to hear that you and your children have had a positive experience with us. Our team strives to provide personalized care, and your recommendation means a lot to us. We appreciate your trust and look forward to continuing to support your family!😁🦷
Christopher G.
I’ve been a patient at Providence Orthodontics for the past 2.5 years, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. They have been guiding me through the Invisalign process, which was initially expected to last about 18 months. However, what truly sets them apart is their unwavering commitment to helping me achieve the exact results I was looking for—even going above and beyond the original treatment timeline and cost to ensure everything was perfect.

Dr. Collins has been my primary orthodontist, and I can’t say enough about her expertise and attention to detail. She’s incredibly thorough and takes the time to explain every step of the process, which has been so reassuring. The rest of the team is equally amazing—kind, patient, and always ready to help. Whether it’s taking scans, assisting with tray fittings, or answering my questions, every staff member has been friendly and professional.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your wonderful review, Christopher!😁 We're thrilled to hear about your positive experience with Dr. Collins and our team. Our commitment to your satisfaction is paramount, and we're glad we've been able to exceed your expectations. Your feedback motivates us to continue delivering exceptional service to our patients. We appreciate your trust in us!🦷❤️
Tiffany H.
I had a great experience here! I got a new retainer and they had a great new scanning system for my teeth, so I didn't have to suffer through the horrible retainer molding process that is typical of other places. Everyone I interacted with was so kind. I will definitely return if I need any other orthodontic care!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words about us and our staff!
Alicia W.
Five stars isn’t enough when discussing Providence Orthodontics. As an older patient (63) I was apprehensive about the whole braces experience but they have made this journey so easy.
They are flexible with my appointments as we live some of the time in Florida. They staff is really fun and really like each other. It is a relaxing, fun environment for patients of all ages.
I am not done yet but will miss this crew when the braces come off. Thank you Providence Orthodontics! You are awesome!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words about us and our staff. We work diligently day in and day out to provide the best patient experience possible, so it’s wonderful to hear when we meet our goals!
A S
Our daughter has been a patient at Providence Orthodontics for about a year and a half, and we’ve loved every step of the way. Every appointment is very easy-going - from the welcoming staff, to the braces being a comfortable and non-stressful event, to a simple visit to get more elastics. Throughout our child’s braces journey, Dr. Jessica Collins has offered us a variety of options of care so we can make the best decision for our daughter.
We highly recommend Providence Orthodontics when you’re looking for the best experience for orthodontics!
Response from the owner:Thank you for your kind words! Your vote of confidence in our practice is why we do what we do!
