A course of fixed braces typically means 10 to 20 visits (a consultation, the fitting, 7 to 17 adjustments and the removal), which from here comes to about 850 to 1,700 miles and 25 to 50 hours on the road. At the 45p a mile HMRC uses for business driving, that is roughly £380 to £765 in running costs.
