How we quote habit-breaking appliances
We do not publish a figure for this treatment, because the honest answer is that it depends on what we find. Two patients needing habit-breaking appliances can need very different work. You get your cost in writing after the examination and X-ray — before anything begins.
No surprise billing. We quote after the X-ray and examination, not
during treatment. If the plan changes clinically, we stop and discuss it with you
first. Send a photo on WhatsApp beforehand and we will tell you what is likely involved.
