Straightening your teeth is an investment in both your confidence and your oral health, but before you begin your orthodontic journey, you’re likely keen to understand what it will cost.
Many factors contribute to the total cost of teeth straightening. It’s essential to consider all the elements so you can make an informed decision about your treatment.
At Smilelign, we understand that you want orthodontic treatment to be as affordable as possible. As such, we pride ourselves on being more cost-effective than other clear aligner brands on the market.
While we can’t provide an exact price without assessing your individual case, we can break down the factors that influence the cost of straightening teeth and give you a clearer picture of what to expect.
Factors influencing the cost of teeth straightening
Type of treatment
The method you use to straighten your teeth is one of the most significant factors affecting the cost. While clear aligners may be slightly more expensive than traditional metal braces, they are often preferred for their ease of use and aesthetic benefits, particularly for adults.
Complexity of your case
The complexity of your dental issue will also play a role in the final cost. If you choose to go ahead with clear aligners, mild to moderate misalignments will likely require fewer aligners and shorter treatment time, which can lower the cost. However, more complex issues that require significant tooth movement may increase the price due to the need for more aligners.
Geography
The location of your dentist can affect the cost of treatment. For example, dental practices in larger cities or more affluent areas may charge higher fees compared to those in smaller towns or rural areas.
Additional services
The cost of your treatment may also include additional services such as teeth whitening or retainers at the end of your treatment.
Smilelign: Affordable clear aligners
Smilelign aligners (also known as clear braces) are designed to fit comfortably, be virtually invisible, and effectively straighten your teeth.
The aligners are custom-made by skilled technicians to ensure a perfect fit, with each aligner designed to move your teeth in small increments over time.
By choosing Smilelign, you’ll receive:
- Face-to-face support from a qualified dentist
- Regular check ups to make sure your treatment is progressing as it should be
- Aligners made from a premium material just 0.8mm thick for optimum comfort
- More movement per aligner than other brands, meaning less aligners and faster, more affordable treatment
The cost of treatment will be determined by your dentist based on the complexity of your case. Most treatments range from £1750-£5000+, dependent on the number of aligners that you’ll need.
There are many Smilelign providers who offer finance options, such as monthly payments, to make your journey to a straighter smile more accessible and affordable. This means you don’t have to compromise on achieving your dream smile.
