How Can We Help You Smile Today?

With Dr. Alkhoury leading the way, our team at Simply Orthodontics proudly offers a wide range of teeth-straightening services – from traditional braces and Invisalign to pediatric orthodontics. At your consultation, we can go over each of these more in-depth depending on your specific dental needs. However, you’re also welcome to click on the pictures below to learn more in the meantime.

Traditional Braces

Invisalign

Clear Braces

Self-Ligating Braces

Pediatric Orthodontics

Traditional Braces

Most often, when patients think of braces, they think of traditional braces. With this orthodontic treatment, we’ll use strategically placed brackets and wires as well as rubber bands and other orthodontic accessories (if necessary). At each of your check-in visits, we’ll ensure that your teeth are moving properly and adjust your braces so they continue to apply gentle pressure. Before long, you’ll have the gorgeous smile you’ve been dreaming of!

Invisalign

If you want to straighten your teeth but you haven’t taken the next step because you don’t want to wear metal brackets and wires, then ask our orthodontist near Dudley about Invisalign! With a series of custom-made clear aligners, we can comfortably guide your teeth from where they are now to their properly aligned positions. Since the trays are removeable, you won’t have to worry about any dietary restrictions or cumbersome oral hygiene regimens either!

Clear Braces

Although Invisalign can address mild and moderate cases of malocclusion, there are some patients who aren’t a candidate because of the severity of their overcrowding or gaps. Don’t worry – that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to wear metal brackets and wires. Clear braces use the same tools, but they are made from tooth-colored materials. As a result, they are incredibly effective and considerably more discreet than traditional braces.

Self-Ligating Braces

Although you may not have heard of self-ligating braces, they are an extremely popular orthodontic treatment. Why? To start, there are clear options available, which makes it more enticing for image-conscious teens and adults. Furthermore, the cutting-edge sliding mechanism tightens overtime, which means more comfort and less check-in appointments. Of course, the final result will be the same: a gorgeous smile.

Pediatric Orthodontics

Since teens are one of the most popular age groups with braces, many parents assume that they should wait until their child is 12 or 13 to schedule an appointment. However, the American Association of Orthodontists actually recommends bringing them in for an exam at age 7! At this point, we’ll be able to assess the position of their teeth, the alignment of their bite, and the development of their jaw to determine if they would benefit from pediatric orthodontics.

Our Affordable Payment Options

Our team is happy to offer four financial solutions to help make the cost of braces more affordable! Of course, we will review the details of each with you at your consultation. However, you can also click on the icons below to learn more in the meantime.

We Welcome Dental Insurance
We Have an In-House Savings Plan
We Happily Accept Flexible Financing
We Extend Periodic Special Offers

We Welcome Dental Insurance

Although each dental plan is a bit different, many include orthodontic coverage if it’s deemed “medically necessary.” So, don’t hesitate to review your benefits or ask our team for help understanding your coverage! We’re proud to welcome (and have extensive experience working with) Guardian, Humana, MassHealth, MetLife, and several other popular providers.

We Happily Accept Flexible Financing

If paying for the entire cost of braces at once would put a serious strain on your wallet, then ask our team about LendingPoint! They offer low monthly payment plans, and some don’t even require a down payment. As a result, you can break down the cost into smaller, more budget-friendly chunks so you can straighten your teeth and boost your confidence without breaking the bank.

We Extend Periodic Special Offers

In addition to dental insurance, our Preferred Plan, and flexible financing, we help our patients save with our periodic promotions! With specials like a free orthodontic consultation, the cost of your teeth-straightening journey is significantly more affordable. If you want to learn about our latest promotions, you can give our Dudley orthodontic team a call.

We Have an In-House Savings Plan

At Simply Orthodontics, we also have a Preferred Plan. With this financial solution, you get replacement retainers for five years! So, when yours starts to smell, get old, or break, you won’t have to worry about squeezing the price into your monthly budget – it’s already covered. Plus, you’ll get a take-home teeth whitening kit so your teeth are perfectly straight and brilliantly bright.

How do I get emergency orthodontic care?

Although there’s a good chance you won’t experience any orthodontic emergencies throughout your teeth-straightening journey, it’s always a good idea to be prepared – just in case. The first step is assessing your symptoms. If you have fractured your jaw, you’re having trouble breathing, or you’re bleeding uncontrollably, then call 911 or go to the ER. If a bracket is loose, a wire is protruding, or your teeth feel loose, then call our orthodontic team near Dudley instead. That way, we can intervene with the necessary care so there are minimal delays to your treatment plan.

How many orthodontists are in Dudley?

According to Google, the population of Dudley is about 11,802. Since there is typically one dentist for every 2,000 people, there are likely only a handful of orthodontists in your area. The good news is that our top-rated team at Simply Orthodontics Webster is happy to welcome patients and families from all over the area, including those looking for an orthodontist near Dudley.

What is the best way to find an orthodontist?

If you’re in the process of looking for an orthodontist in your area, then asking friends, colleagues, and family members for their recommendations is always a great start. Of course, if you want a quicker answer, you can always search “orthodontist near me” on Google as well. The real question is how you should narrow down the list of recommendations. We recommend reading through the orthodontist’s bio, looking at the services they offer, and pinpointing what makes the practice unique. It’s also a good idea to consider what’s important to you as a patient, like dental insurance or discreet teeth-straightening services.

What do you do if you can't afford an orthodontist?

Now you might be wondering, “But what if I can’t afford an orthodontist?” We recommend taking a look at the financial solutions we offer. In addition to welcoming dental insurance and offering our own in-house savings plan, we accept flexible financing and extend periodic specials. In other words, there’s more than one way to make braces affordable! Over the phone, we can provide further details on each. At your consultation, we can provide you with an estimate of the cost and work with you to find the best financial solution. Remember, we’re here to help you have the smooth and stress-free treatment experience you deserve. So, don’t hesitate to bring any questions you have about the cost to us.
