Ds-$3500, just braces and power bands, 2 yrs. of treatment
Dd1- $2800 expander first, then 6 ms later 12 ms. In Braces
Dd2- $3000, expander and braces concurrently, 12 ms.
Ds was a one-phase treatment. Dd1 was a two-phaser but doesn't need the second phase due to obsessive retainer wearing. Dd2 gets her braces later this summer, she's also a 2-phaser but may not need the second phase due to tiny teeth that have left tons of room in her mouth. We had the option of expander only for now and braces later, but the way her teeth look bother her so I will risk doing it again.
After reading how much others pay, I'm pretty impressed with our costs!
We used to have $1500 toward orthodontics; it was raised last year to $2000.
