FAQ

You ask - we answer

We attach great importance to close communication with our patients before, during and after orthodontic treatment. Here we answer frequently asked questions to promote understanding.

How much does orthodontics for adults cost?

The cost of braces for adults is closely related to the two factors of treatment time and the desired treatment method.

A slight deviation of a single tooth is much quicker and easier to treat than a complex tooth and jaw misalignment. The simpler the correction, the lower the cost of orthodontics for adults.

The chosen treatment method is the second relevant factor for the amount of the costs. A variety of different braces are available for orthodontic correction in adults. If, for example, there is a desire for invisible tooth correction, then it is necessary to work with custom-made braces. Compared to ready-made braces, there are certain additional costs associated with their manufacture, which affect the overall treatment costs.
At our specialist orthodontic practice in Munich-Unterföhring, we will be happy to advise you individually on the options and costs of braces for adults.

What costs are covered by statutory health insurance for braces for adults?

Statutory health insurance companies contribute to the costs of orthodontic treatment if it involves a combination of orthodontic and oral surgery. The costs of orthodontic treatment without surgical involvement must be borne by adult patients with statutory health insurance. In our practice for orthodontics in Munich-Unterföhring, we offer attractive, interest-free installment payments in these cases.

What does private health insurance pay for orthodontics for adults?

If you have private health insurance, you can often expect to be reimbursed even as an adult. In the end, it depends on the individual insurance conditions to what extent the private health insurance company will cover the costs of orthodontic treatment for adults. It is worth taking a look at the individual insurance conditions to find out whether you will have to bear the costs yourself. It makes sense to submit the treatment plan to the private insurance company before starting treatment.

How long does the orthodontic treatment of an adult take?

The duration of orthodontic treatment for adults depends heavily on the extent of the misalignment. A slight misalignment of individual teeth is usually corrected much more quickly than a combination of pronounced tooth and jaw misalignment.
Treatment times of a few weeks to approx. 2 years are possible. An experienced orthodontist is able to make a relatively precise and accurate statement about the duration of treatment required for the individual patient during the initial examination.

Do clear aligners work for adults?

Clear aligners work regardless of age. Each aligner is worn for approx. 10-14 days before changing to the next aligner. Step by step, the teeth are moved to the desired position. This method is particularly popular with adults due to its visual inconspicuousness. The lingual technique is a completely invisible alternative to clear aligners.
