What Affects Orthodontic Costs?
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 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 affects the total — treating both upper and lower costs more than one arch alone. Confirm whether a quote covers both before comparing.
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 push city-centre fees above suburban ones. Baveney Wood usually has practices at several price points, so two or three quotes are worthwhile.
How much do aligners cost in Baveney Wood?
Clear aligner cost in Baveney Wood varies considerably from case to case. Complexity, brand, refinement allowances and clinical input each pull the price up or down. What's included matters more than the sticker price when you compare providers.

Are retainers (both fixed bonded and removable) included? Are there charges for broken attachments or replacement aligners?
