The cost of straightening teeth in Tynron runs from free NHS treatment for eligible under-18s to over £7,000 for complex private cases.

Paying for Orthodontic Treatment in Tynron

Most private orthodontic practices in Tynron offer payment plans — typically 0% or low-interest monthly instalments spread over the course of treatment (usually 12–24 months). This makes private treatment much more financially accessible. A deposit of 10–25% of the total fee is usually required to start treatment, with the balance spread over equal monthly payments.

Always check whether the payment plan is in-house (directly with the practice) or through a finance provider such as Chrysalis Finance or Medenta. In-house plans typically have no credit check; third-party finance plans involve a formal credit application.
