Youtube linkNot Interested in our Monthly Membership Plans or Looking to Exit your Concierge Membership?- Here’s our 2026 Alternatives:

As we enter our 10th Year of StraightSmile Solutions Orthodontic Consulting, we are proud that we’ve helped hundreds, if not thousands of doctors learn to love orthodontics and many have added $XXX, XXX to their practice production. 

How It Works:

Option 1: Stay in your Concierge Membership until all cases are finished. This is always the BEST option. If you stay current, your rate will not go up. We can work with your existing staff or train up an associate, with your permission. www.straightsmilesolutions.com/services 

Option 2:  A–LA- Carte in BULK: https://www.straightsmilesolutions.com/services/#a-la-carte

$479 each or $503 with tax (this price WILL go up in 2026)
This is PER case PER meeting – up to 20 minutes PER MEETING- 10% off 5 or more cases, 20% off or more. I STRONGLY recommend you go through ALL the secure mail and audit it first before shutting this down because once you do, we can’t recover the data. 
Concierge prices do go up every year. Rate may change yearly. These cases expire after 12 months.

Option 3: The Step-Down-Plan (Aka- it’s a Billable Hour Retainer Plan that Expires in 1 Year)- this option is ONLY available to current StraightSmile Solutions Customers who have been with us for at least 1 full year.

That’s why I recommend a retainer. Basically, it means I stick with you for the long haul.

  • Regular check-ins: Monthly or quarterly, whatever works
  • On-call advice: Just ping me when you want to chat!
The fine print:
Hourly retainer -$1000 per HOUR plus tax (that’s cheaper than 3 cases) or $900 per hour if you purchase 5 or more hours, $800 per hour for 10 or more hours (and so on)- all hourly. This hourly rate will increase in 2026.
These hourly retainers expire after 12 months.
Phone calls and zooms are rounded up to the nearest 10 minute increment
Text Messages and Emails are rounded up to the nearest 5 minute increment 
You will be given a goole drive link to monitor your remaining balance and you’ll be notified when you have <15 minutes left to see if you want to reload. 
Updated retainer balances are sent after every meeting. Phone calls, zoom calls, emails AND texts all count towards communication logs. This is also an option for industry professionals or expert networks.

Orthodontic A-La-Carte, Hourly, and Exit Strategy Support for Doctors

Are you a new dentist just beginning to integrate orthodontics into your practice? Are you doing only a few cases per month and not ready for a monthly commitment? Or are you a long-time member thinking about transitioning out of orthodontics but still want access to expert support? Our non-subscription consulting options are designed with flexibility in mind, so you can receive high-quality orthodontic guidance exactly when you need it, without long-term commitments or hidden fees.

Straight Smile Solutions has assisted hundreds of dentists and orthodontic providers in becoming confident, achieving better results, and succeeding with the necessary level of support. You need a single case review, bulk a la carte access, hourly mentorship, or an exit and step-down strategy. Consider that we have clear and efficient pathways to follow depending on the practice volume and objectives.

Why Choose Flexible Orthodontic Support?

Orthodontics can be a high-reward, yet complex, addition to your practice. Many doctors hesitate to commit to full monthly consulting plans (VIP, Concierge, Premium) when:

  • You’re just starting and doing a small number of cases each month.
  • You have periodic case-specific questions and don’t need ongoing coaching.
  • You’re considering scaling back or exiting, but still need access to expertise.
  • You want on-demand orthodontic guidance without contract obligations.

Our flexible options provide expert support on your schedule, without requiring recurring payments that don’t align with your current case volume.

A-La-Carte Case Reviews

Perfect for occasional case questions or targeted review.

  • What it is: A dedicated one-on-one session (up to 20 minutes) to review a single orthodontic case with a qualified consultant.
  • Who it’s for: New dentists learning case selection, part-time orthodontic providers, or any doctor with a specific clinical question.
  • How it works: You submit your case details securely and schedule a short Zoom session. The consultant focuses on your specific treatment planning or clinical challenge.
  • Benefits: You get direct access to expert insight without a long-term membership or subscription.
  • Pricing: Transparent per-case fee (with options to buy multiple sessions at a discount).

A-La-Carte sessions allow you to access professional orthodontic insight only when you need it, making them ideal for low-volume providers or targeted clinical questions.

Bulk A-La-Carte Options

For doctors who anticipate multiple case questions over time but still don’t need ongoing support, our bulk a la carte option lets you pre-purchase multiple case reviews at a reduced rate.

  • Advantages: Volume pricing encourages regular case oversight while controlling costs.
  • Use cases: New grads starting orthodontics, dentists integrating clear aligners or expanding into limited lab workflows, and providers seeking periodic second opinions.

Bulk purchasing offers flexibility and savings without requiring a monthly commitment.

Hourly Consulting and Mentorship

When you want more than a single case discussion but still prefer a pay-as-you-go approach over a monthly plan, our hourly consulting option provides structured mentorship and clinical advice on demand.

  • What it includes: Strategic planning calls, clinical discussions, team guidance, operational advice, and more.
  • Who it’s ideal for: Recent graduates needing regular mentor support, dentists evaluating practice systems, or any provider with unpredictable orthodontic needs.
  • How it works: Pay for only the time you use calls, Zooms, emails, and messages, all logged and tracked transparently.
  • Benefits: Complete flexibility, no subscription, and tailored guidance with no ongoing commitment.

Hourly consulting lets you build confidence and clinical competence while controlling your costs.

Step-Down and Exit Strategy Support

If you are transitioning out of orthodontics or want to scale back your involvement, we offer structured plans to support that transition.

  • Exit strategy support: Ensures a smooth transition by reviewing active cases, providing documentation guidance, and helping you maintain treatment continuity for patients.
  • Step-down plans: A hybrid between hourly consulting and ongoing support — choose predictable access to expertise with a clear end date.
  • Who it’s for: Long-term consultants stepping back, dentists taking a break from orthodontics, or practices restructuring their focus.

These options provide you with clarity and confidence as you adjust your professional path without leaving cases unattended.

What Kinds of Cases do We Support

Our non-monthly consulting options cover a wide range of orthodontic presentations, including but not limited to:

  • Clear aligners (Invisalign, Clear Correct)
  • Fixed braces
  • Phase I and interceptive orthodontics
  • Functional appliances
  • Retention strategies
  • Indirect bonding workflows
    This support helps you make clinical decisions with confidence, even when you’re not doing high case volumes.

How to Get Started

Getting expert orthodontic advice doesn’t need to be complicated. Simply:

  1. Choose the level of support you need: single case, bulk, hourly, or exit strategy.
  2. Submit case records or request a session.
  3. Schedule your consultation based on mutual availability.
    Our team works with you to match your needs with the right format, ensuring efficiency, professionalism, and tailoring it to your workflow.

Final Thought

Non-monthly support gives you the best of both worlds: high-level orthodontic guidance without locking in what you’re not ready for. Whether you need help with a single case or ongoing, ad-hoc access to experienced clinicians, these options are tailored to meet you where you are in your professional journey.
