1. Advantages of traditional braces
Traditional braces have some advantages that can be mentioned as follows:

The average treatment cost of traditional metal braces ranges from 30 to 40 million depending on the condition of overbite, underbite, gap, misalignment,… at an average level, difficult or complicated. Some other methods that ensure aesthetics will have a higher price.

Traditional braces still have some of the following limitations:
2.1. Not ensuring aesthetics
Although it has the advantage of being effective in orthodontics and saving a lot of money, many people are still reluctant to have braces, especially metal braces, for aesthetic reasons. The archwire and bracket system is usually fixed on the tooth surface, making you feel less confident when communicating or smiling in certain situations.
2.2. Feeling uncomfortable
Not only braces but any orthodontic method brings a feeling of discomfort at first when the mouth is not used to the braces. In daily activities, due to not being adapted, the cheeks and tongue are easily rubbed against the braces, causing pain, bleeding, … These problems can be overcome with some measures guided by the doctor.
3. Factors affecting the price of braces?

3.1. Oral health
The more severe the condition of crooked teeth, protruding teeth, underbite, misaligned bite, etc., the higher the price of braces will definitely be because it takes longer to align. On the contrary, if it is lighter and easier to move teeth to the correct position, it will save costs and treatment time.

4. Price of metal braces
There are 2 main types of metal braces as follows:
4.1. Conventional metal braces
Conventional metal braces have been around for a long time. This method uses a system of metal archwires and brackets to create a tightening force to help pull the teeth to the desired position on the jaw. The brackets are made of stainless alloy with high durability and are very sturdy, so they can ensure maximum orthodontic effectiveness. However, aesthetics are not guaranteed because the color of the metal is completely different from the color of real teeth.
The price of conventional metal braces at BIK International Dental Clinic ranges from 30,000,000 – 40,000,000 VND/ 1 course.
4.2. Self-ligating metal braces
Self-ligating metal braces are an improved orthodontic method from metal braces, so they still retain the traditional basic features. The only difference is that the automatic lock will be integrated on the braces to help fix the archwire without the need for elastic bands as usual. The replacement sliding cover helps the archwire to be fixed more tightly, limiting some common problems such as elastic band stretching, elastic band friction causing damage to the cheek area, entanglement, etc.
The price of self-ligating metal braces at BIK International Dental Clinic ranges from 35,000,000 – 45,000,000 VND/ 1 course.

The operating mechanism of ceramic braces is similar to that of metal braces because they both use a system of archwires and brackets to help teeth move to the desired position. However, the braces are now made from high-quality ceramic materials with the same color as real teeth, so they will bring higher aesthetics. Thanks to that, you can still comfortably smile confidently even when wearing braces.
The price of ceramic braces at BIK International Dental Clinic ranges from 40,000,000 – 50,000,000 VND/ 1 course.
6. Price of lingual metal braces
Lingual braces, also known as lingual braces, have a similar structure to traditional metal braces. The difference lies in the position of the braces, instead of being fixed on the outside of the teeth, the orthodontic appliance is now attached on the inside, opposite the tongue. This helps to hide the orthodontic appliance and you can be more confident when communicating.
Requiring high technique and skills of the doctor directly performing the procedure, the price of lingual braces is quite high, ranging from 85,000,000 – 115,000,000 VND/ 1 course.
