Dr. Murphy offers a 3% courtesy when choosing to pay for your orthodontic treatment in full by cash or check on the day the braces are placed.
Another offer to think about is the family courtesy discount when more than one family member is in treatment at the same time.
Please inquire for details.
We also offer interest-free, in-house financing which consists of a down payment the day the braces are placed and the remaining amount divided by the estimated months in treatment, payable by check or credit card on the 15th day of each month.

Orthodontics is the branch of dentistry that specializes in the diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of dental and facial irregularities.
The technical term for these problems is "malocclusion", which means "bad bite".
The practice of orthodontics requires professional skill in the design, application, and control of corrective appliances, such as braces, to bring teeth, lips and jaws into proper alignment and achieve facial balance.
Crooked and crowded teeth are hard to clean and maintain.
This may contribute to conditions that cause not only tooth decay, but eventual gum disease and tooth loss.

All orthodontists must be licensed to practice, but at this time only 1 in 3 orthodontists have continued on to become a board certified orthodontist.
The American Board of Orthodontics (ABO) certification process signifies a unique achievement-a significant step beyond the two to three years of advanced education required for a dentist to become a specialist in orthodontics.
The process requires the orthodontist to demonstrate actual accomplishments in patient care with detailed case reports on the treatment provided for a broad range of patient problems.
