For braces and splints, please be advised that even if we bill your insurance, the costs of braces and splints are your responsibility. These charges may be subject to a separate co-payment or a separate deductible.

For payment we accept:
Check, Debit Cards, Mastercard, Visa, American Express, Discover
Note: Credit cards not accepted for managed care co-payments.

Liability Insurance Crisis
Are you aware that there is a medical liability insurance crisis in New York?
