When it comes to orthodontic treatment — and any life-changing investment — nothing is more frustrating than hidden fees, surprise costs, and confusing insurance denials.
At Fellow Orthodontist, we believe in transparency. You should know exactly what you’re paying for, what your insurance covers, and how we work to make treatment as affordable as possible.
No surprises. No gimmicks. Just exceptional care and real value for your investment.
Here’s how Dr. Lin and our team empower you to make the best decision for your smile, and your life, with complete transparency:
Upfront Pricing, No Hidden Fees.
We tell you exactly what your Invisalign costs or braces costs will be before you start. That includes everything:
- Your initial consultation
- Your down payment
- Monthly payments
- Insurance benefits
- All of your financing options
We also handle the insurance paperwork for you, so you can maximize your benefits without the headache.

Expert Care from a Leading New York City Orthodontist
When you choose Fellow Orthodontist, you’re not just getting orthodontic treatment—you’re getting care from a true expert in the field.

Flexible, Affordable Financing for Invisalign and Braces
We make high-quality orthodontics affordable with flexible payment options:
- No-interest, in-house payment plan
- Down payments as low as $600
- Monthly payments as low as $200 (or less) with insurance
On your first visit, we’ll calculate your treatment cost, deduct your insurance coverage, and work out a custom financing plan with a down payment and affordable monthly payments that meet your needs.
Maximizing Your Insurance & Pre-Tax Savings
Does insurance cover Invisalign or braces? Yes, insurance can cover a significant amount — up to $3,000 of your braces or Invisalign treatment.
Orthodontic coverage varies by provider and plan; some plans have a lifetime maximum for orthodontic care, while others require waiting periods or specific eligibility criteria. We’ll verify your benefits and handle all the paperwork so you don’t have to.
We’re proud to be an orthodontist near you who accepts insurance, and is in-network with most major providers—which means you get the best rates possible with lower out-of-pocket costs.
You can combine your benefits with an FSA or HSA to save even more with pre-tax dollars. If you’re ready to apply your HSA or FSA to Invisalign or braces, our team will walk you through each step of the process.
Virtual Care on Your Terms
We know life is busy. That’s why we offer convenient virtual care so you can check in with Dr. Lin from your phone, on your own time. When you do visit our Union Square orthodontic office, you’ll experience a modern, laid-back environment designed for your comfort.
You’ll only have to visit us when necessary, and you’ll receive personalized care and attention from anywhere, at any time. We blend virtual care with personalized in-office visits so you get more value for your investment and more convenience — without spending more money.

Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we’re transparent about that. If you’re not happy within 100 days of starting treatment, we’ll refund your money. That’s how confident we are in our care.
It’s important to us that you feel comfortable starting treatment with us, and that you know your investment is secured, and your happiness is guaranteed.
