Orthodontic treatment

[Pierce]

Hi

I am in desperate need for orthodontic treatment to straighten my teeth. My problem is that I am not sure which system to have for my treatment. I like the fact Invisalign is an invisible system but I have heard that metal braces are a bit quicker.

I saw an orthodontist last week who said that in my case, both orthodontic treatments would work well but he said that the Invisalign system would cost £7000 and the metal braces system would cost £4000. So that put me off Invisalign, because I can't afford £7000 at the moment and I would need to save up a bit for that.

But I see on your site, you advertise the Invisalign as from £1450. What's the highest price that Invisalign could be at pearl? If I decide to have my orthodontic treatment at Pearl, how quickly would you be able to start my treatment?

Hello Pierce,

Thank you for your post.

At Pearl the cost of invisalign ranges from £1450 to £3800. Mild cases cost less than £2000. Moderate cases are less than £3000 and severe cases less than £3800.

Only a consultation will determine if metal braces or invisalign is more suitable for you. Consultations are free and available most days of the week at Pearl. Metal braces can be quicker than invisalign in some cases. The average invisalign case takes 1 year to complete and metal braces can take upto 2 years for the more complex cases. You should see a orthodontist if you decide to go for metal braces.

If you decide to have invisalign at Pearl, we can take all the orthodontic records necessary for invisalign usually on the same week. Following this your video is ready in 1 month and you can start wearing aligners 2 weeks after this. That is a total of 4-6 weeks before your treatment can be started.
