How** **much does Invisalign cost in Birmingham?
What clear aligner treatment typically costs, what changes the price, and how monthly payments work.
What changes the price
Aligner treatment is priced by complexity, not by time in the chair. Two people can both want 'straighter teeth' and need very different amounts of tooth movement to get there.
- How many teeth need to move, and how far.
- Whether one arch or both arches are being treated.
- Whether your bite needs correcting as well as your alignment.
- Whether any preparatory work — hygiene therapy, fillings, gum treatment — is needed first.
- Refinement aligners and retainers, which we include rather than bolt on later.
What a quote should always include
| Included | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Consultation and 3D iTero scan | You see the predicted result before committing. |
| All aligners in the plan | No per-aligner surprises mid-treatment. |
| Review appointments | Progress is checked, not assumed. |
| Refinements | Small corrections at the end are normal, not an upsell. |
| Retainers | Teeth move back without them. This is part of the treatment, not an extra. |
Paying monthly
Most patients spread the cost. We offer finance through Chrysalis Finance, so treatment can be paid over a term rather than up front. Interest-free and interest-bearing options depend on the term and the amount — the team will show you the real monthly figure before you decide anything.
Invisalign & straightening: your questions on this topic
Is Invisalign available on the NHS?
No. Clear aligner treatment is a private, cosmetic and functional treatment. NHS orthodontics is limited to under-18s who meet clinical need criteria, and is normally provided with fixed braces.
Is Invisalign more expensive than fixed braces?
Usually slightly, but not always. Complex cases can cost similar amounts either way. The bigger difference is comfort, appearance and the number of visits.
Do I pay anything for the consultation?
You'll be told the consultation fee before you book, and it is credited toward treatment if you go ahead. Call the practice for the current figure.
Are retainers included?
Yes — your first set of retainers is part of the treatment plan. Replacement retainers later on are charged separately.
