What Affects Orthodontic Costs?

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 should be clarified in every quote, since one-arch and two-arch treatment are priced very differently.

Retainers are essential and sometimes billed separately (typically £80–£350 per arch, depending on type). Some practices include them; always confirm which.

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

Practice location and overheads explain part of the spread: overheads differ practice to practice in The Hangers, and shopping around is standard for private treatment.

Cost Context for The Hangers

Private full fixed brace treatment in The Hangers typically costs between £1,500 and £5,500, depending on case complexity. Straightforward crowding or spacing cases often suit aligners; more involved bite corrections are more often treated with fixed braces.
