Why Quotes Vary So Much

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 is the second big lever: the harder the case, the longer the course and the higher the fee, whatever you're treated with.

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 close out treatment but aren't always in the headline fee — ask whether they're included or charged on top.

Refinements can quietly inflate an aligner bill if capped, so pin down the refinement policy up front.

Practice location and overheads push city-centre fees above suburban ones. Tyler Hill usually has practices at several price points, so two or three quotes are worthwhile.
