My son is going to need braces soon.  I was wondering what is the price range that some have paid for braces.
Thanks.

Depending on if you have coverage or not, you can expect to pay $5000 or better.

I think we paid about $3500 for my son, who is just finishing up. We also used one of the supplemental dental programs available on the internet. I think it cost us about $150 and knocked about $900 off the price.

I paid $4670 for the whole package 4 months ago, got a 5% discount.



Dental Insurance rate was just under $7Gs.

Thanks for the info.  My insurance covers $1000 towards braces so I guess I'm looking at about $4000.
That kinda puts a cramp in my latest AR build. Priorities are a bitch.

I have braces now.  It was estimated that I would need them for 20 months.  It was been about 16.  The total cost of my treatment is about $3700.  I pay $184 a month.
