All about the financial and time requirements of orthodontic treatment answered!

Deciding to wear braces is an important step on the road to your healthy and beautiful smile. One of the first questions patients think of is, "How much will it cost me?" and "How long will I have to wear braces?" Fortunately, this article will provide you with all the key information about cost, length of treatment, and the factors that affect both.

What affects the cost and length of treatment with braces?

Before we get to the specific amounts and time frames, it should be emphasized that the final price of braces and the duration of treatment with braces depend on several factors.

Complexity of an orthodontic case

If you suffer from several defects in your teeth, the price may increase. Likewise - simple dental defects can be resolved more quickly than complex orthodontic problems.

Number of interventions or procedures

Sometimes your dentist needs to perform certain procedures before orthodontic treatment. Or you don't treat your braces properly during treatment and have to go in for frequent wire repairs. This will increase both the cost and the overall length of treatment.

Type of braces chosen

For a comparison of prices and average treatment times, see the table below:


Type of braces Average price Average treatment time
Metal braces 30 000-70 000 CZK 18-36 months
Ceramic braces 40 000-90 000 CZK 18-36 months
Invisalign invisible braces 50 000-100 000 CZK 9-18 months
Lingual (internal) braces 100 000-150 000 CZK 12-24 months
Removable / removable braces from 1 000 CZK works as a pre-treatment or as a retention treatment

‍

Specifically, the price is influenced by:

  • Region and clinics: you will probably pay more for braces at a well-known orthodontic clinic in Prague than at a smaller orthodontic clinic in ÄŚeskĂ˝ Těšín. Prices vary according to the location where the treatment is performed and the experience of the orthodontist.
  • Whether you need braces for one palate or both: In some cases, only one arch treatment, i.e. braces for one palate of teeth, may be necessary. And in that case, the treatment will - logically - cost you a little less. 

Financing options for braces

If you were scared when you saw the price table, let us reassure you. It doesn't have to be so hot, thanks to these 3 factors in particular:

  • Installment programs: Some orthodontic clinics, including ours, allow you to spread the cost over monthly installments.
  • Contributions from insurance companies: insurance companies contribute to orthodontic care for children up to 22 years of age. Many Czech insurance companies also offer one-off contributions for braces (the conditions and the amount of the contribution vary for each).
  • Promotions and discounts: free consultations, special promotions and other one-off events are also no exception at individual clinics. Always keep an eye on the website for information.

The length of dental treatment with braces: how to shorten it?

In addition to the factors mentioned above, your age also affects the length of treatment. Children's teeth are more flexible, so orthodontic treatment can be shorter for children, but that doesn't mean braces are not recommended for adults! It's a topic that is shrouded in many myths, which is why you'll find three different articles on it on our blog:

How can you shorten the treatment time yourself? 

Follow all instructions given by the orthodontist. Proper use of braces, such as wearing elastics, speeds up treatment. Don't know how to do it? Read our article on living with braces or how to brush your teeth with braces.

Go for regular check-ups. Checks and adjustments to your braces ensure that your treatment goes as planned.
