A course of fixed braces typically means 10 to 20 visits (a consultation, the fitting, 7 to 17 adjustments and the removal), which from here comes to about 350 to 690 miles and 10 to 20 hours on the road. At the 45p a mile HMRC uses for business driving, that is roughly £160 to £310 in running costs.
