Patients often ask why clear aligners cost more than metal braces. Fair question. Here's the breakdown. Traditional braces involve brackets, wires, and monthly tightening visits. The cost is mostly chair time over 18 to 24 months. Clear aligners involve a custom set of trays (often 30 to 60 trays for a full treatment), manufactured from a 3D scan of your teeth. The lab work, the 3D treatment planning by the orthodontist, and the manufacturing precision are where the cost sits. A few things to weigh against the higher upfront price: Fewer chair visits. We see aligner patients every six to eight weeks for a quick check, not monthly. Removable for meals, brushing, photos and important events. Predictable outcome thanks to 3D treatment planning before you start. Less impact on professional life. Adults in client-facing roles often find this is worth the difference. Mild cases (small crowding, minor spacing) cost less. Complex cases cost more. We give a written estimate after the scan, no surprises.
