Treatment Costs of Braces and Invisalign

Upfront Diagnostics at No Initial Cost

Lindenhurst Orthodontics offers a complimentary consultation that includes a medical history review, thorough oral exam, X-rays, and iTero digital 3D scans. This initial visit provides parents with a documented treatment plan and diagnostic information before any financial commitment begins. The iTero scanner captures detailed impressions in minutes and transmits them electronically for immediate use in treatment planning. Scans are available in the ClinCheck system the very next day, allowing families to preview projected outcomes through the Outcome Simulator. By bundling these diagnostic services into a free consultation, the practice removes a common barrier that can make cost comparison difficult across providers. Parents researching early intervention for pre-teens can obtain a personalized plan with specific timelines (most standard treatments take a range of 6 to 30 months) without incurring evaluation fees.

Published Discounts and Affordability Positioning

Lindenhurst Orthodontics publishes specific new-patient discount offers on our website, providing concrete numbers for families budgeting orthodontic care. We generally offer $500 to $1,000 off braces or Invisalign for new patients receiving full treatment. Both offers note they cannot be combined with other discounts or insurance benefits, which clarifies how savings apply in different scenarios. The practice is “focused on affordability” and acknowledges that “the cost of braces is an important consideration for every family.” This explicit affordability messaging, combined with documented discount amounts, gives parents researching multiple orthodontists a clear reference point. For families comparing Phase I treatment options (recommended for children by age 7), having published discount figures simplifies the evaluation process.

Insurance Assistance and Payment Plan Support

Lindenhurst Orthodontics works with most major insurance providers, including state plans and Union insurance plans, and accepts most major credit cards. The office provides direct assistance with insurance claims and paperwork, reducing the administrative burden on families navigating orthodontic benefits. The practice creates payment plans for families, though specific financing partners are not publicly listed. For parents managing the cost of treatment spanning 22 months on average (with appointments every 4 to 8 weeks), understanding payment structure matters as much as the initial price quote. Dr. Matthew Nissenbaum has practiced orthodontics on Long Island for over 20 years, with more than 15 years at Lindenhurst Orthodontics, providing continuity in both clinical care and billing relationships. The office operates Monday through Friday, 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with Saturday appointments available, offering flexibility for discussing financial arrangements.

Cost transparency in orthodontics requires more than a single price quote. Lindenhurst Orthodontics addresses this through free diagnostic consultations, published discount amounts, and hands-on insurance support.
