No two orthodontic problems are the same and the cost of treatment will depend on the complexity of the problem. Many people require only simple treatment, and you may find that the cost is lower than you expected. Should treatment involve braces in only one arch, the fee will be considerably less.
Your private health insurance extras cover will generally offer a rebate for orthodontic fees, usually with annual limits. You may also receive a medical expense rebate as part of your annual tax return. Contact your health fund and visit www.ato.gov.au for further information.
At (B) we’re flexible. You have the option of paying your treatment deposit as either a lump sum, or as distributed payments spread over 1-4 months.
The remaining treatment fee is generally then paid over monthly intervals for the duration of the treatment, which for braces is usually 20-24 months. Payment arrangements can be further customised to suit your individual requirements.
