What the record tells you
Specialists in Orthodontics of Maryland, LLC is an NPI registry record for a dental organization at 8600 Snowden River Pkwy Ste 302 in Columbia, Maryland 21045. CMS issued NPI 1952954091 on 18 July 2019, and the practice last updated its own entry on 12 October 2023. That was 2 years ago; the details are probably current, but confirm the address when you book.
It is registered under 2 dental taxonomy codes: Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics (1223X0400X), Dental clinic or center (261QD0000X). That puts it in 2 categories on this site, led by dental clinic or center. A practice that registers more than one category is telling CMS it does more than one kind of dental work at this address, which is why it has a page here rather than a row. The same registered name appears at 2 distinct addresses nationally. That is either a group practice or a name common enough that unrelated offices share it, so ask whether pricing is set locally or by a parent company. 2 further NPIs are registered to what looks like the same business at this address (Dentistry for Children of Maryland, LLC, NPI 1609335066 and Kids Super Smile, NPI 1942548540); they are covered by this page rather than given pages of their own.
Columbia holds 85 registered dental practices inside the Baltimore-Columbia-Towson, MD area, which has 1,095 in total on the Maryland side and ranks 2nd in the state. 17 of the Columbia records also register dental clinic or center, so this is one of several local options in that category. Across the metro the mix runs general dentistry 58.9%, dental clinic or center 19.7%, orthodontics 8%. The closest other registered practices are Smile Innovations (0.3 miles, Columbia), Nyathi Dental Health LLC (0.8 miles, Columbia) and Columbia Center for Implants & Periodontics (0.8 miles, Columbia), with 2 more inside 0.8 miles.
On our figures a routine adult cleaning in Maryland runs $120 to $180 cash and scaling and root planing $190 to $300 per quadrant, against a US average of $125. This practice's own prices are not in the registry and never will be: NPPES holds identifiers, not fees. Call (410) 953-0111 and ask for the cash price on code D1110, whether the exam and X-rays are included, and whether they run a membership plan if you have no insurance.

What to ask when you call
- The cash price for D1110, a routine adult cleaning, and whether the exam (D0120) and X-rays (D0274) are inside or outside that number.
- Whether you need scaling and root planing before a routine clean, and the per-quadrant price for D4341 or D4342 if so.
- Whether they run an in-house membership plan, and what it covers against what it costs a year.
- Whether they are taking new patients and how far out the next hygiene appointment is.
- The practice license, with your state dental board. An NPI is a billing identifier and proves nothing about licensing.
CMS NPPES NPI data file, August 2026, snapshot 10 August 2026. US federal public data (FOIA-disclosable, no charge). CMS NPI files. NPI registry records, status as reported by CMS in the August 2026 data dissemination file. NPPES is an identifier registry, not a license register: an NPI does not validate that a practice is licensed, accredited or currently open. Practices maintain their own NPPES entries. Every page shows the date the record was last updated; addresses and phone numbers are as self-reported and are not verified by us. This page describes a registry record. It is not a review, an endorsement or a check on Specialists in Orthodontics of Maryland, LLC.
Price figures are our own, last verified April 2026. State averages are our estimates compiled from FAIR Health regional cost data and CMS Medicare fee schedules; the ADA discontinued its national Survey of Dental Fees in 2023, so no national fee survey exists.
