There's no single price for orthodontics in Mavis Enderby — the range is genuinely wide. Case complexity, appliance type and inclusions all move the total up or down. A photo assessment helps you gauge likely complexity before comparing quotes.
Why Quotes Vary So Much
Treatment type matters most. The gap between metal and lingual braces reflects real differences in materials, lab work and chair time.
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 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 (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. Mavis Enderby usually has practices at several price points, so two or three quotes are worthwhile.
