Here’s a quick look at what to know about braces prices and payment options before starting treatment:
There isn’t one set price for braces because orthodontic treatment is personalized to each patient.
While you may see national estimates for the average cost of braces online, those figures can vary widely and may not reflect what your treatment will cost.

The cost of braces is based on the treatment a patient needs rather than age alone.
Children, teens and adults can have very different orthodontic needs, so treatment length and complexity may affect the total price.
We provide personalized orthodontic treatment for patients of all ages and will explain your recommended treatment, expected timeline and complete cost during your consultation.
Sometimes treatment preferences change.
If you’re interested in switching treatment types after you’ve started braces, talk with Dr. Insoft or Dr. Hurst. They can evaluate your treatment progress and determine whether Invisalign is an appropriate option for the remainder of your treatment.
Because every situation is different, our team can also explain whether switching treatments would affect your treatment plan or cost.
There is no single price for braces because orthodontic treatment is customized for each patient.
Your cost will depend on factors such as the complexity and length of your treatment, the type of braces you choose and your available insurance benefits.
