Price for braces

What's a realistic price to pay for braces? I. e. end to end treatment.
The harder one works the luckier one gets!

    This is a "how long is a piece of string " question.

    Costs will depend on, amongst other things, how complex your problem is , how long treatment will take, what system of braces are used, whether the orthodontist practice is in an expensive city centre or cheaper suburb, etc

    A simple ,quick fixed (train tracks) treatment may start from £1800 , a complex Invisalign treatment may cost over £5800.

    The only way to tell for you is to book an appointment with an orthodontist (a specialist in braces not a general dentist) who has been recommended to you and see what your options for treatment are.

    Expect to pay around £150 for an initial assessment, x rays and models.
