Average Cost for Braces in VA and the USA
Now we’ll look at national averages. However, keep in mind that the actual cost will vary depending on your unique smile. For some people, they only need minor correction, so treatment can be significantly less. For others, more extensive treatment is required.
Also, there are many types of modern braces, including traditional metal and clear ceramic braces. Therefore, the cost will depend on which kind of treatment you choose.
Now, we’ll look at some national averages.
According to a 2019 survey by the American Dental Association, braces’ final cost ranges from just under $5K to over $7K. Meanwhile, a study by Oral-B found the cost range between $3K and $10K in some cases.
These numbers are similar to those from the Consumer Guide for Dentistry. In this case, the survey found that braces tend to cost between $2 to $6K nationally. Notably, Invisalign tends to cost about the same amount.
Although this is a considerable investment, financing or insurance means braces are affordable. Considering the result of a perfect smile for life, it’s worth it. Not to mention, you could avoid serious health issues by straightening your smile.
At Mill Creek Orthodontics, we promise to provide the most value for every minute and every dollar you spend with us.
