Frequently Asked Questions
How much do braces or Invisalign cost in Somerton?
Braces and Invisalign clear aligners in the Somerton area typically range depending on your case length, complexity, and treatment type. At DOG Ortho, we offer a complimentary new patient consultation where you’ll get a clear quote and a custom treatment plan. We also offer low down payments, low monthly payments, and zero-interest financing to keep care within reach.
At what age should my child see an orthodontist?
The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that children first see an orthodontist by age 7. At this age, enough permanent teeth have come in to spot issues like crowding, crossbites, or jaw growth concerns early. An early visit doesn’t always mean early treatment, but it helps us monitor growth and time things perfectly.
How long does Invisalign treatment take?
Invisalign treatment time varies based on your specific case, but many patients complete treatment in about 12 to 18 months. With weekly aligner changes, you’re often on your way to your new smile even faster than traditional options. Your board certified orthodontist will give you a realistic timeline during your complimentary consultation.
Do you offer payment plans or accept insurance?
Yes! DOG Ortho is in-network with most major insurance plans and offers flexible payment plans with no down payment options, low monthly payments, and zero interest. Our team will check your benefits and walk you through every cost up front. You can also use our online Payment Calculator to estimate what works for your budget.
What should I do in an orthodontic emergency?
For poking wires, loose brackets, or lost aligners, call our team at (215) 910-4376 right away. Most issues aren’t true emergencies, but we’ll get you in quickly to fix anything uncomfortable. If you’re a current patient, simple at-home tips can often hold you over until your appointment.
