Unfortunately, yes. Here are the average cost for different types of orthodontic appliances.
- Braces- On average braces cost anywhere from $5000-$7000. If you can't afford braces, don't think for one second that you can't have perfect teeth! If your family makes less that $10,000 per person annually than you can qualify for financial aid!
- Lingual Braces- Lingual braces cost an average of $1000-$2500 more than regular braces.
- Invisalign- Usually Invasalign cost about $3500-$5000 based on the severity of the problem.
- Gold Braces- Yes, they are made of real 24k gold and are only for people with Allergies to specific metals. They do cost more than regular metal braces, well, because they are gold!
- Retainers- Retainers are the cheapest, because they don't do as much work. You cannot supplement braces for retainers as they don't work as well. On average they cost approximately $250.

Can one wear a straightening retainer instead of braces for minor teeth problems?
Why certainly, I am 15 and I wear braces. I have heard that, depending on the severity of the problem, only a retainer is necessary to achieve the desired straightening. It is supposed to much cheaper too. An orthodontic appliance (straightening retainer) doesn't really make teeth more straight, even if the correction needed is minor. If you are not comfortable wearing braces, you can ask your dentist about invisalign.
