This may be a tacky posting thread, but I see that people have posted the cost of their treatment plans elsewhere, as have I, and I personally think it's helpful. I am wondering if I should have shopped around, particularly since I live in Canada and on the border of the US. I wonder if it's less expensive in America?
I am on my first week of liners. I have a pretty mild upper crowding that's being repaired (I changed treatment option, so my cost may go down).
My treatment has been quoted as about $6500 (Can.) for 9 months. Are most people in this ballpark?
I live in Montreal and I also paid $6500 for my treatment. It was originally for 18 sets of aligners, therefore 36 weeks, but with the refinements, and some extra time here and there, it's really been about 18 months.
In Alberta, Canada - 4500 dollars (it was 4400, and then all of a sudden an extra 100 dollars were tacked on. I should have inquired about that, but alas did not) for 19 U and 18 L.
I'm in Kansas City, Missouri/Kansas. I went with Express for $2300. If I'd gone for the full package, it would have been $4500 - which was fairly consistent among the providers I contacted.
Mine started out at $6500 US. Then I moved to another state and switched orthos, and the second one was cheaper, so it worked out to around $5800. I'm still paying a ton per month, because I financed part of the first ortho through Capital One, and am paying the second ortho each month. I'll be very happy when I'm not shelling out $300 per month which I really don't have right now
I haven't gotten my trays yet, however it is going to cost me $3500 USD (California) for 6 months (upper and lower).. its cool b/c I only had to pay 1/2 now.. then payments for the rest..
