It varies for everyone...it depends where you live; big or small town/city...what is your treatment, etc...

I am paying 5500$ CAN...a lot of people here are paying between 3000 and 5500...some a bit less...some a bit more.

There is a thread somewhere on the Metal Mouth Forum about the cost and how much everyone is paying...

I know I could give a better estimate if I knew a little more about what country, or what part of the coutry (i.e. if in US, metro Atlanta or even whether you are north/east/south/west) you are in.

I got quite a few estimates and never, ever found any under $4,000 and one was as high as $7,700. I am on the East Coast US.

Most ortho's offices will give you a ball park figure if you call. They cannot commit to it, but all I called gave me a rough estimate.

Hi there, i have total of 7 consultations because they have quote me from $4100-$9000, i don't think the most expenisve one is the best because the ways how my braces are treated will be the same as other orthos, i think he is too expensive, so i finally picked the $4100 one instead, he is nice and he seems nice to me, so u really need to take time to see different ortho, ask them any questions.
