How much do braces cost in Tampa?
Most patients at Miller Orthodontics invest between $3,000 and $6,500 for comprehensive treatment, depending on how long treatment takes and how complex the case is. Treatment starts at $300 down with 0% interest financing. You receive your exact cost in writing at your free consultation, before you commit to anything.
Shorter cases that correct minor issues fall at the lower end of that range, while longer treatments involving significant bite correction fall at the upper end. Optional additions like professional whitening and extended retainer protection are quoted separately, so you can decide what you want included.
Do you offer payment plans?
Yes. Most patients start treatment with $300 down and spread the balance across the course of treatment at 0% interest, in house. We also offer extended-term financing through HFD if you'd prefer smaller monthly payments over a longer period. We'll walk through the options with you at your consultation.
Do you offer any discounts?
Yes. Miller Orthodontics offers discounts for teachers, military members, first responders including police, fire, and EMS, and full-time students with ID. Ask about them at your consultation and we'll apply what you qualify for when we present your treatment fee.
Can I use my HSA or FSA for braces?
Yes. Orthodontic treatment is an eligible expense for both HSA and FSA funds, for adults and children. Many families time the start of treatment around their plan year to use benefits from two calendar years. We provide documentation for your plan administrator on request.
