Question about Invisalin Price Discrepancies

[Adultseekingremedy]

Im starting to get very confused.

Firstly, I was quoted £3,600 from my orthodentist for top and bottom invisalign.

Secondly, I was quoted £3,000 from a Harley Street dentist for top and bottom invisalign.

Thirdly, I was quoted £1,595 from a Harley Street dentist for top and bottom invisalign.


Its crazy! How can there be such a difference! How can the Harley Street dentist charge so little. Its disconcerting how there can be such a difference.

Any thoughts?

At first the differences seem crazy you are right but certain clinics price themselves differently based on different criteria and i would be careful when price shopping. I cannot comment on your treatments or the clinics you have been to but when considering the price of any cosmetic dentistry ask the following questions:

How many cases has that dentist performed in the past - the more experienced practitioner will generally charge more

What does the aftercare entail?

Does the dentist have photographs (before and afters) of work that he/she has completed that is similar to what you want?

Will i see the same dentist throughout my treatment?

Some dentists may be working on a low profit margin

How long has that dentist been offering this treatment for

what does the price include - retainers, two arches, one arch, full arch or only movement of anterior teeth?

I hope the above helps and good luck in making the right choice it can be a hard task

i'm curious to know which places you went to to get the quotes

my dentist quoted me about £2800 for my treatment but i'm not sure i can afford that and i wonder if someone else woudl do it cheaper as my mum has never been completely trusting of this dentists pricing either...

many thanks.

Its pretty disgusting the price differences, it just shows how important it is to have a good look around and research for the most reasonable price, it appears that they can charge what they feel like!
