Treatment typeTypical cost rangeNotes
NHS metal bracesFree for eligible under-18sAdults who do qualify pay the NHS Band 3 charge, £332.10 in England from April 2026, which covers the whole course.
Private metal braces£1,500–£3,500No waiting list. Full arch treatment. Retainers included in good practices.
Ceramic braces£2,000–£4,500Tooth-coloured brackets. More discreet than metal. Not NHS-available.
Clear aligners (non-Invisalign)£1,500–£4,500Wide range by brand and complexity. Confirm refinements and retainers are included.
Invisalign Lite£2,500–£3,500Mild cases only. Limited refinements.
Invisalign Comprehensive£3,500–£5,500Moderate to complex. Unlimited refinements within treatment cycle.
Lingual braces£4,000–£8,000Completely hidden. Highest cost. Fewest providers in Aunby.

These are typical private fee ranges for Aunby — individual practices may charge more or less depending on their overheads, location, and clinician experience. Always request a written treatment plan with the full fee itemised before committing.

Why Quotes Vary So Much

Treatment type matters most. The gap between metal and lingual braces reflects real differences in materials, lab work and chair time.

Case complexity moves the price within any treatment type. A mild spacing case needs fewer appointments and less clinical time than a complex overbite correction with extractions.

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 can quietly inflate an aligner bill if capped, so pin down the refinement policy up front.

Practice location and overheads vary across Aunby — higher-rent locations charge more, which is exactly why comparing a few local quotes pays off.

How much do aligners cost in Aunby?
