Mack and Hansen Orthodontics is in network with most dental insurances

If you are looking for an orthodontist that is in network with your dental or orthodontic insurance, then look no further! Here at Mack and Hansen Orthodontics we are your in network orthodontic provider for braces and invisalign. We treat children, teens and adults of all ages too. If you have questions about your orthodontic coverage or insurance, we would be happy to help you understand your insurance coverage.

What does it mean that we are an in-network orthodontist? How much do braces cost?

Well, what that means to you is that you will receive an even greater discount on your orthodontic treatment, whether that is with braces or invisalign. If you have an orthodontic benefit as part of your dental insurance, then that benefit amount will go directly towards treatment. It is what your insurance will pay towards braces or invisalign, which means it is that much less that is out of pocket for orthodontic treatment. Because we are an in-network orthodontic provider you get that additional discount on your orthodontic treatment, meaning there is even less that comes out of pocket for treatment, and that is great news for you!! There is a wide range of orthodontic insurances and depending on the type of insurance you have your orthodontic benefit may be greater than other insurances.

How do I know if I have orthodontic insurance?

When you give us a call for your complimentary consultation and give us your insurance information we reach out to your insurance company and get all the details regarding your orthodontic benefit. We will go over these details with you at your visit, so you know exactly what the out of pocket portion will be for orthodontic treatment.
