Paying for treatment
Reconstructive dentistry is a considerable decision, and the cost of it should never be the part you find out last.
A written plan, before anything begins
After your examination you receive a treatment plan setting out what is recommended, in what sequence, over how many visits, and what each stage costs. You take it away and think about it.
No honest figure can be quoted before that examination, because the cost of rebuilding a bite depends entirely on what is there to start with. Anyone quoting you a price for a full arch over the phone is quoting somebody else's mouth.
Where more than one approach is reasonable, you are shown the options and what separates them, including the cheaper one and what you give up by choosing it.
