Mine is $4,500 before insurance. Insurance will cover $70 a month until July when I turn 23. ($420 total to be covered) I am still in shock at these prices. Kelly

$5,700.00 for 12-18 months orthodontic treatment which includes an upper expander for 3-6 months then braces placed after the expander. I really think the prices vary depending on where you live.
Keep in mind the cost should not be the only thing to think about when making your decision. Another thing to think about when choosing an orthodontist is which orthodontist you feel comfortable talking to regarding questions or concerns that you have.
1,500 with insurance
and i have ceramics which are more expensive i guess. just regular would have been 1,000. who knows how they do it so cheap, because this is a really nice ortho and i think they charge 5000-7000 without insurance.
$3,000 for me. I prepaid with zero percent financing for 1 year. Then I have to get 2 implants that will be $4,200. My dental insurance doesn't cover braces for adults, and will not cover the implants either!
