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

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 push city-centre fees above suburban ones. Trefasser usually has practices at several price points, so two or three quotes are worthwhile.
