Frequently asked questions about the cost of braces
Your question wasn’t answered here? We’ll be happy to answer all your other questions at your free initial consultation!
The initial consultation for your braces is free of charge with us.
Yes, in many cases your health insurance covers part of the cost of your braces; the exact amount reimbursed depends on various factors. At the consultation you’ll receive your exact cost plan.
Treatment time with braces for adults ranges from around 5 months for mild crowding to 24 months for complex dysgnathia or malocclusions.
Of course, we’ll continue your treatment at no extra cost.
We offer both interest-free instalments for up to 36 months and instalments with interest for up to 60 months.
Our braces are tax-deductible. In your annual tax assessment (Lohnsteuerausgleich), all payments made for your braces in the previous year can be claimed as “extraordinary expenses” (außergewöhnliche Belastungen).
No, you can come straight to your free consultation and don’t need to bring anything.
Our braces are neither cheap nor expensive. First and foremost, it’s about achieving the best possible result for your teeth and then maintaining it. There’s no point in buying cut-price braces at bargain prices if your teeth then shift again in no time, or if the desired result is never achieved. Much like taxi fares, with orthodontic treatment the Austrian Dental Chamber (Österreichische Zahnärztekammer) issues independent fee guidelines roughly once a year for specialists in dental, oral and maxillofacial medicine, dentists and Dentisten – and we follow them too.
