Colored braces, ceramic braces, or Invisalign braces can cost well over $5000. You are paying for the novelty of having something other than standard metal, plus the cost of titanium, gold, ceramic and the other materials used for nonstandard braces can cost several thousand more because of the material itself.
In our practice, for a child or teenager, the average cost of braces or Invisalign is $5800, and for an adult, $6400. There are no hidden fees, and we donât charge extra to use the very latest technology. Unlike some practices, our fees are the same for both braces and Invisalign.
