Tuckahoe, NY – Orthodontic treatment is an investment, and for many people, they may wonder if it is one they can afford. Dr. Sam Polan, of Tuckahoe Family Orthodontics in Westchester County, NY, knows that this is a real concern for many of his patients, so he works hard to ensure affordable treatment is available to everyone.

“Orthodontic treatment can provide amazing benefits for many people,” says Dr. Polan. “But for many families, the cost of treatment is a very real and valid concern. We do everything we can to help patients and their families fit orthodontic treatment comfortably into their budgets.”

Orthodontic treatment isn’t only about a beautiful smile, but that is a big part of it. A straighter smile is easier to keep clean, which can help fend off decay, cavities and gum disease. A misaligned bite can cause tooth damage, such as chipping and breaking. Orthodontic treatment works to ensure that a patient’s smile is aligned properly and is straight. This can improve oral health, but also help patients find increased self-esteem and confidence.

“The smile is the first thing people see when they meet us,” says Dr. Polan. “And we want everyone to feel like they can offer a big, confident smile to all those they meet.”

There are several ways Tuckahoe Family Orthodontics works to make treatment affordable to everyone.

1. Complimentary consultations – You don’t have to worry about the cost of an initial consultation to learn about treatment, because Dr. Polan offers these first appointments for free.
2. Flexible payment plans – Tuckahoe Family Orthodontics offers affordable and flexible payment plans. A financial coordinator will work with you to find a plan that will comfortably fit into your budget.
3. Insurance benefits – Tuckahoe Family Ortho accepts all major PPO insurance plans, and a staff member will help you understand your benefits and ensure you get the most from your insurance company.
4. Discount for paying in full – Tuckahoe Family Ortho offers a discount for those who are able to pay the cost of treatment in full at the beginning of treatment.

“At Tuckahoe Family Ortho, we love being able to offer treatment that makes such a great difference for our patients,” says Dr. Polan. “We know that orthodontic treatment can be a significant investment, so we will always do our best to make treatment affordable for everyone.”
