National Average Cost for Braces and Invisalign

Now, we’ll look at national averages for braces. However, keep in mind the cost varies widely. Many factors can affect cost. For example, there are many types of braces now available. Also, the severity of the case, age, insurance, and other factors can affect the out of pocket cost.

According to a 2019 survey by the American Dental Association, braces’ final cost tends to range from just under $5K to over $7K. Meanwhile, a study by OralB found the cost range between $3K and $10K in some cases. A 2020 report from U.S. News & World Report confirmed costs in these ranges.

Generally Comparable to Invisalign

Often, the cost is comparable to Invisalign. However, braces may be a better option in advanced cases, which tend to require more treatment. Therefore, cases that require more correction tend to have a longer treatment time and final cost.

However, your orthodontist will need to examine your smile to recommend the best custom treatment. Dr. Milestone and our friendly team will work with you to develop the best possible custom treatment that fits your unique smile and personal goals. He’s an award-winning expert in braces and Invisalign, so you’re assured an excellent custom plan.

Notably, today’s modern braces are vastly improved. For one, they are much more discreet, with clear options. Overall, they are much sleeker and streamlined than in the past. Plus, new technologies allow you to get a perfect smile in less time.

Investing in Your Smile is Worth It!

With braces or Invisalign, you can achieve a beautiful smile. However, you will also improve your oral health, avoiding possibly serious health concerns. Thus, treatment is much more than cosmetic and can lead to life-changing benefits.

For an idea, here are some of the things you could avoid by getting started:

Gum disease and associated problems
Tooth decay and tooth loss
Resulting bone loss and changes to your appearance
Jaw pain and related problems (TMJ)
Painful chewing and biting
Speech impediments
Low self-esteem and fewer smiles

Braces Help People of All Ages

Today, people of all ages can benefit from orthodontic care. Interestingly, more and more adults are getting started, even after putting off the care they deserved for years.

The President of the AAO, Morris N. Poole, DDS, said that their “only regret is not starting treatment sooner.”

Poole went on to note:

“We have data showing that adults report improvements in their professional and personal lives after completing orthodontic treatment.”

It may sound like an exaggeration to say smiles can affect lives. However, studies bear that out more and more. By smiling, you can improve productivity and enhance personal success in many areas of life.
