Affordable Orthodontic Financing Options
What Payment Options Do We Offer?
At Advanced Orthodontics in Kent, WA, we want to make treatment as easy and affordable as possible for every family. That’s why we offer several flexible payment options to fit different budgets and lifestyles.
You can choose from:
- Full-payment courtesy for families who prefer to pay in full at the start
- No-interest financing with monthly payments that work with your budget
- Courtesy discounts for multiple family members receiving treatment
- Third-party financing for additional flexibility
During your free initial consultation, our team will review each option with you, explain how orthodontic benefits work, and help you choose a plan that feels comfortable. Our goal is simple: provide high-quality orthodontic care that fits your life and your budget.
For added convenience, we also offer automatic drafts from checking accounts or credit cards to make payments easy and stress-free.
What Is Included in My Treatment Fee?
Your treatment fee includes everything needed to guide your smile from start to finish. This helps you understand exactly what you’re investing in and what support you’ll receive throughout your time with us.
Your fee includes:
- Records and X-rays to help us design the best treatment plan
- Custom treatment planning tailored to your needs
- All appliances, such as braces or aligners
- Routine orthodontic visits during regular hours
- Emergency visits during regular office hours
- One set of retainers at the end of treatment

These services are all part of your personalized orthodontic plan, designed to give you the best possible results.
What Isn’t Included in My Investment?
While your treatment fee covers almost everything, there are a few items that are not included because they fall outside the normal scope of orthodontic care.
These may include:
- Dental work provided by another dentist or specialist
- Missed or broken appointments
- After-hours emergency visits
- Extra scans or additional appointments requested by the patient
There are also rare situations where an unexpected accident or injury may require additional treatment. For example, trauma that affects the jaw joint (TMJ), the need for orthodontic retreatment, or surgical procedures may involve extra fees.

Frequently Asked Questions
Understanding how orthodontic financing works can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to make the process simple and stress-free. Below are answers to common questions families in Kent, WA ask when exploring payment plans and insurance options for braces or clear aligners.
Can I start treatment right away if I’m still deciding on a payment plan?
Yes. Many patients begin treatment the same day as their consultation. Our team will help you choose a payment option that fits your budget so you can start your smile journey without delay.
Do you offer financing options for adults as well as kids?
Absolutely. We provide flexible payment plans for children, teens, and adults. Whether you’re planning treatment for your child or considering orthodontics for yourself, we’ll help you find an option that works comfortably for your monthly budget.
How does orthodontic insurance work with payment plans?
If your insurance includes orthodontic benefits, those benefits are applied directly to reduce your overall treatment cost. After insurance is applied, your remaining balance can be divided into monthly payments. Our team will review your coverage and show you exactly how it affects your plan.
Do I need good credit to qualify for financing?
Not necessarily. Many of our in-house plans are designed to be simple and accessible without strict credit requirements. If you choose third-party financing, credit checks may vary based on the company’s policies.
