Below, you will find a detailed guide to how much braces cost.
Metal Braces – $2000 to $3300
Metal braces remain one of the most popular tooth straightening solutions in the UK thanks to their incredibly high success rates. Dentists are able to predict far more accurate results with metal braces, due to the way they are designed and because they have been used in dentistry and orthodontics for almost a century. Metal braces have of course undergone structural changes to ensure their safety and effectiveness through the years.
Clear Braces – $4600 – $5900
Clear braces operate in a similar style to metal braces, in that both are made from metal wiring and brackets, the only major difference with clear braces is that the brackets are designed to be clear. They, like metal braces, are highly successful at treating medium to complex cases.
Lingual Braces – $5200 – $9800
lingual braces, again, follow a similar wiring and bracket network that’s seen in traditional and clear braces, with the only major difference being they’re placed behind your teeth. They are fantastic for patients who are looking for the best and most discrete tooth straightening appliance, but this does come at a cost.
Ceramic Braces – $2600 – $3900
ceramic braces share many similarities with clear and metal braces with the only major difference being that the brackets are tooth-coloured. Ceramic braces work in the same way as traditional braces, they’re just more aesthetically-appealing.
Invisalign – $3200 – $5200
Invisalign is arguably the most popular type of brace in the market. They are made from a series of plastic aligners, one for your bottom teeth and one for the top. The amount of aligners you receive is based on your individual teeth straightening requirements, as is the price.
Smilelign – $3200- $5200
Smilelign is seen as an affordable alternative to Invisalign without any compromise on quality. It works in a very similar way, using a set of clear aligners to gently preposition teeth into their new positions. The aligners are removable and you only remove them when eating and drinking.
