The cost of straightening teeth in Airmyn runs from free NHS treatment for eligible under-18s to over £7,000 for complex private cases. What's included in a quote matters as much as the headline figure when you compare providers. Payment plans can make private treatment accessible even on a tighter budget.
What You're Actually Paying For
Treatment type sets the baseline: the appliance you choose, from budget metal to premium lingual, largely decides the starting price before anything else.
Case complexity adds to it regardless of appliance — more movement means more trays or adjustments, more visits, and more of the clinician's time.
Number of arches should be clarified in every quote, since one-arch and two-arch treatment are priced very differently.
Retainers close out treatment but aren't always in the headline fee — ask whether they're included or charged on top.
Refinements (for aligner treatment) are the extra trays that finish the result. They should be included — ask explicitly before signing.
Practice location and overheads explain part of the spread: overheads differ practice to practice in Airmyn, and shopping around is standard for private treatment.
