Why Quotes Vary So Much

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 explain part of the spread: overheads differ practice to practice in East Marsh, and shopping around is standard for private treatment.

Cost Context for East Marsh

Expect private full fixed brace treatment costs in East Marsh to fall roughly between £1,500 and £5,500. Straightforward crowding or spacing cases often suit aligners; more involved bite corrections are more often treated with fixed braces.
