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 is the second big lever: the harder the case, the longer the course and the higher the fee, whatever you're treated with.
Number of arches is an easy thing to miss: a single-arch quote will look cheaper than a dual-arch one, so check like for like.
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 Honeyburge — higher-rent locations charge more, which is exactly why comparing a few local quotes pays off.
