Short answer:<\/strong> at The Special Teeth, Invisalign has a reference price starting at $3,500 USD<\/strong>, and metal braces are quoted individually after your evaluation (The Special Teeth, n.d.). But with orthodontics, price is only half the decision: the other half is how many times you will need to come to Tijuana over one or two years.<\/p>\n

Consider a hypothetical situation:<\/em> someone who lives in San Diego is comparing two quotes on their phone. One looks cheaper, but neither says how many visits are included, what happens if a bracket comes loose on a Tuesday or who pays for the retainer at the end. The number is easy to compare; the two-year calendar, not so much. This guide helps you put both on the table.<\/p>\n

How long treatment lasts and how often you need a visit<\/h2>\n

The American Association of Orthodontists (AAO) explains that most people wear braces for 12 to 24 months; mild corrections may take a few months and complex cases longer. Adjustments are scheduled every 4 to 12 weeks, depending on the stage of treatment (American Association of Orthodontists [AAO], n.d.-a). In another article, the AAO notes that today\u2019s advances allow 6 to 10 weeks between appointments, although in-person visits are still needed to check tooth movement, the health of teeth and gums, and the appliance (Leber, 2025).<\/p>\n
