Orthodontic Treatment Prices in Peter's Green

The cost of straightening teeth in Peter's Green runs from free NHS treatment for eligible under-18s to over £7,000 for complex private cases. What's included in a quote matters as much as the headline figure when you compare providers. Below we break down NHS and private pricing and the finance options available locally.

What You're Actually Paying For

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 are the additional aligners often needed after the first series; confirm they're covered rather than charged per set.

Practice location and overheads vary across Peter's Green — higher-rent locations charge more, which is exactly why comparing a few local quotes pays off.
