There's no single price for orthodontics in Morden Park — the range is genuinely wide. What's included in a quote matters as much as the headline figure when you compare providers. A photo assessment helps you gauge likely complexity before comparing quotes.
What You're Actually Paying For
Treatment type is the biggest driver. Metal is cheapest, ceramic more, aligners and lingual more again — each appliance has different manufacture, fitting and adjustment costs.
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 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 vary across Morden Park — higher-rent locations charge more, which is exactly why comparing a few local quotes pays off.
