Provider overheads vary by location and practice type. City-centre practices in Stubbings may charge more than suburban ones, and specialists typically price above general dentists — often reflecting their handling of more complex cases.
Inclusions decide whether a quote is really cheaper. Trays, attachments, refinements, retainers and reviews should all be in the base price; check each before you compare.
