Cost of Braces

Orthodontic TreatmentThis is one of the most common questions. Everyone who has received a free orthodontic consultation at any of our offices always has been able to afford to have Los Angeles, Beverly Hills & Las Vegas orthodontist Dr. Alpan treat them without exception. We make it our mission to offer high quality affordable low cost orthodontic treatment. There are many ways to achieve our goal with low cost braces or with the most cutting edge technology. Cost for braces can vary widely depending on the material used. Metal braces are usually our lowest cost treatment option and lingual or hidden incognito braces are the most expensive. There are treatment options that are best for everyone, we just need to figure out which one is best for you or your child.

The total cost of braces depends upon the complexity of the orthodontic problem, so it varies from person to person. Usually longer treatment costs more and shorter treatment costs less. Since, the material used to make orthodontic appliances varies from plastic to gold, so does the price. With the advent of technology and digital 3D imaging the cost to make custom braces incognito firmhandshakeor Invisalign aligners has increased dramatically in comparison to the traditional metal braces. The choices our patients are dealing with are cost of treatment, the time of treatment and the way it looks along the way. When making the decision about the best treatment option considering those three issues can change the price of treatment. Typically the treatment option which is the least noticeable is usually higher cost. The treatment options which are more visible, like metal braces, are the lowest cost option. Please schedule a free initial consultation to discuss all these options.   

Because our modern materials and techniques often require fewer visits, you might be surprised how affordable your orthodontic treatment can be. A healthy, beautiful smile is one of the best investments you can make in your future or in that of your child’s.
