Frequently Asked Questions
How far is Romani Orthodontics from Foster, RI?
Our Chepachet office is approximately 15-20 minutes from most parts of Foster, accessed via Route 6 and Route 102. Our East Providence office is about 30-35 minutes away. Most Foster patients choose Chepachet for its convenient location near the Glocester town line.
Do you offer free consultations for Foster patients?
Yes. Every new patient at Romani Orthodontics receives a free consult, whether you’re coming from Foster, Scituate, or anywhere else in Rhode Island. During your first visit, Dr. Romani or Dr. Collins will review your smile, take diagnostic records, and explain your treatment options with no obligation.
What’s the best age for a child’s first orthodontic visit?
According to the American Association of Orthodontists, children should have their first orthodontic evaluation by age 7. By this age, enough permanent teeth have come in for us to spot developing concerns like crowding, crossbites, or jaw growth patterns. Early evaluation doesn’t always mean early treatment, but it lets us monitor your child’s growth carefully.
How much do braces or Invisalign® cost?
Cost depends on your specific treatment plan, length of care, and the type of appliance you choose. During your free consult, we’ll provide a clear estimate and walk you through our Family Care Program, payment calculator, and financing options to make treatment fit your budget.
Do you accept insurance and offer payment plans?
Yes, we work with many insurance plans and offer flexible in-house payment options. Our financial coordinators will review your benefits, explain what’s covered, and help you understand your out-of-pocket costs before treatment begins.
How long does treatment typically take?
Most orthodontic treatment takes between 12 and 24 months, though some cases finish sooner and others take longer. Factors include the complexity of your case, the appliance you choose, and how closely you follow Dr. Romani’s instructions. We’ll give you a personalized timeline at your free consult.
