How much do braces cost in Melbourne?

The cost of braces in Melbourne can vary depending on the type of braces you choose and the severity of your teeth misalignment.

For instance, traditional braces are usually cheaper than invisible braces Melbourne. However, if your misalignment is more severe, you may need to opt for a more expensive treatment option such as an orthodontic surgical or invasive procedure. However, an invasive procedure carries risks so it is important that you consult with a dentist before making a decision about which type of braces to get.

To get a better idea of how much braces will cost you, we recommend booking a consultation with one of our registered dentist. They will be able to assess your individual case and provide you with a tailored quote.

Melbourne Braces Costs Guide 2024

Traditional Metal Braces Cost

Traditional metal braces are the most common type of complete teeth realignment option and typically cost between $5,000 and $8,500. If you have a more complex case, the maximum price may be higher.

Ceramic Braces Cost

Ceramic braces (or clear braces) are an excellent orthodontic treatment option for adults and older teens who want straighter teeth but are concerned about the appearance of traditional braces.

Ceramic braces cost between $5,000 and $9000 on average, which is slightly more than metal braces. 

Lingual Braces Cost

Lingual braces are placed on the back of your teeth, making them virtually invisible. They are a great option for adults and older teens who want to straighten their teeth without anyone knowing they are wearing braces.

The cost of lingual braces is typically between $7,500 for a single arch and $12,500 for a whole treatment kit.

Invisalign Cost

Though the Invisalign clear aligner treatment begins at $3,000, many patients find that the cost is worth it for the amazing results.

Because the aligners are virtually invisible, many patients appreciate the esthetics of invisible braces (Invisalign). In addition, the aligners are removable, so patients can eat whatever they want and brush and floss normally.

So if you're interested as well, you can easily book an appointment with one of our dentist and they will be able to give you an accurate quote, including an invisible braces treatment plan.

What affects the price of braces?

There are a few things that affect the price of braces including the severity of your condition, the type of braces used, and your treatment provider's level of experience.

Conditions

Severe conditions that require longer treatments will obviously be more expensive than less severe conditions.

Brace-type

The type of braces also plays a role in the price with some materials being more expensive than others.

Orthodontic Experience

And finally, treatment providers with more experience tend to charge more for their services. However, keep in mind that you often get what you pay for so it is important to find a balance between affordability and quality when choosing a treatment provider.

What type of braces is the cheapest?

Traditional dental braces (also known as metal braces) are often the cheapest type of braces. This is because they are the most common type of braces and, as a result, have a more competitive price. However, there are a few things to keep in mind before choosing regular braces.

  • First, metal braces are more visible than other types of braces, so if you're looking for a discreet option, metal braces may not be the best choice.
  • Second, metal braces can sometimes cause irritation and discomfort, so if you have sensitive skin, you may want to consider another type of braces.
Overall, metal braces are a great choice for those on a budget, but it's important to weigh all your options before making a decision.

How can I make my orthodontic treatment more affordable?

There are a few ways you can make orthodontic treatments more affordable:

1. Look for discounts

Many orthodontic practices offer discounts, so be sure to ask about any specials they may be running.

2. Consider a less expensive treatment option

As we mentioned before, metal braces are typically the most affordable type of braces. If you are concerned about the appearance of traditional fixed braces, you can always opt for ceramic braces which are slightly more expensive but still relatively affordable.

3. Ask about payment plans

Many orthodontic practices offer interest-free payment plans to make dental treatment more affordable. Be sure to ask about this when you are scheduling your consultation.

4. Look for health insurance cover

Some health insurance providers offer orthodontic coverage, so be sure to check with your provider to see if this is an option for you.

What type of braces is the most expensive?

The most expensive type of braces is none other than Invisalign. This is because Invisalign is a newer technology that uses clear aligners to straighten teeth.

In addition, Invisalign treatment often requires fewer office visits than other types of braces, which can add up over time. However, many patients find that the cost is worth it for the amazing results.

So be sure to talk to your orthodontist about all your options and what type of braces will best fit your needs and budget.

Braces Payment Plans

There are many ways you can pay for braces to lighten the financial burden and make a full course of treatment more affordable.

Some ways you can pay for your treatment include:

  1. Paying in full (often at a discount)
  2. Take advantage of a payment plan to spread out the cost of treatment.

At Gorgeous Smiles Dentistry, it is our goal to provide you with high-quality orthodontic services at a price you can afford. To accommodate different budgets, we offer 0% interest-free payment treatment plans so that you can pay for your treatment over time without any added financial stress.
