Common Questions

Braces Questions, Straight Answers

How much do braces cost in Cary?

It depends on how far the teeth need to move and how long that takes. Any price quoted before an exam is a guess. Your free visit ends with a real number for your case. Traditional braces start with no down payment and low monthly payments, and we offer family discounts for more than one child. We also accept most major insurance plans, including BCBS of NC, Cigna, Delta Dental, and United Healthcare.

Is no down payment really true?

Yes, for traditional braces. You can start treatment with zero down and spread the cost over low monthly payments. We go over the exact numbers at your free visit before anything starts.

How long will braces take?

Most treatments finish in 12 to 24 months. You get a timeline for your case at the free visit.

When should my child first see an orthodontist?

The American Association of Orthodontists recommends a first evaluation by age 7. That does not mean braces at 7. It means catching problems while the jaw is still growing, when they are easier to fix.

Are there braces people cannot see?

Yes. InBrace® brackets hide completely behind your teeth. And if you want no braces at all, we carry five clear aligner brands, including Invisalign®. Dr. VanderWall will tell you honestly which option fits your case.

What if a wire breaks or pokes?

Call us. We reserve same-day emergency time at all three offices every day.
