Making Quality Dental Care Accessible to All
Dental care is an investment in your overall health, and we understand that cost can feel like a barrier — especially for more involved procedures. At Northern Westchester Dental Care and Briarcliff Dental Care, our practice believes that world-class dental care should be accessible to every family across our Northern Westchester offices, which is why we offer multiple financing and payment solutions to fit a variety of budgets and situations.
At Northern Westchester Dental Care and Briarcliff Dental Care, we work with two of the most trusted names in healthcare financing: Cherry and CareCredit. These options allow you to move forward with the dental treatment you need without having to pay the full cost up front.
Cherry is a patient financing option designed to make healthcare more affordable through simple applications and flexible payment plans. CareCredit is a widely accepted healthcare credit card that allows patients to pay for treatment over time. Both are available for a wide range of dental procedures at our Yorktown Heights and Briarcliff Manor offices, and applying is straightforward — often completed before or at your appointment.
Whether you are considering dental implants, cosmetic dentistry, orthodontics, or any other service our team provides, financing through Cherry or CareCredit gives you the flexibility to manage your investment on a schedule that works for you.
For patients pursuing orthodontic treatment specifically, we are pleased to offer an in-house payment plan — no third-party financing required. This means you can work directly with our team to create a payment arrangement that fits your needs.
Getting started with financing at both locations is a simple, guided experience. Here is what to expect:
Come in for a consultation with our team. Our doctors will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and outline the recommended treatment plan so you have a clear picture of what is involved.
Learn which financing solutions are available for your treatment. Our team will walk you through the Cherry, CareCredit, and in-house orthodontic payment plan options so you can choose what works best for your situation.
Complete your financing application. Applications for Cherry and CareCredit can typically be completed quickly, and our team is here to help guide you through the process.
Move forward with your care. Once your financing is in place, you can schedule your treatment and get started on the path to a healthier, more confident smile.
We know that not everyone has access to dental insurance, and we did not want that to stand between our patients and the care they deserve. That is why we created the NWDC Membership Plan — developed specifically for individuals and families who do not have dental insurance coverage.
It is important to note that the NWDC Membership Plan is not dental insurance. It is an in-house membership designed to make prioritizing your dental health more affordable and straightforward, without the complexities that often come with traditional insurance.
If you have questions about whether the membership plan is right for you, our team is happy to walk you through what is included and how it works. We are committed to helping every patient find a way to access the high-quality, whole-body dental care they deserve right here in Northern Westchester.

Both Cherry and CareCredit have their own application processes, and the impact on your credit score can vary depending on the type of inquiry each lender performs. We recommend reviewing the terms directly with each provider. Our team can point you in the right direction when you come in for your consultation.
In many cases, yes. Patients often use financing to cover the portion of treatment not covered by their insurance plan. Our team can help you understand how your benefits apply and where financing can fill the gap, so you have a clear picture of your out-of-pocket costs before moving forward.
