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 adds to it regardless of appliance — more movement means more trays or adjustments, more visits, and more of the clinician's time.
Number of arches should be clarified in every quote, since one-arch and two-arch treatment are priced very differently.
Retainers are a recurring cost people forget; check whether the quote bundles them or adds them at the end.
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 Low Springs, and shopping around is standard for private treatment.
Cost Context for Low Springs
