What are the AVERAGE cost of braces? Do you know how much monthly? How long the AVERAGE braces usually stay on someone? and how much MORE EXPENSIVE are getting clear cubes rather than white or colors?

the average cost of braces is about 5000 dollars . i don't know what clear cubes are . but there are various things out there now such as invisalign and i believe they are more costly than regular brackets
the orthodontistis around my area require a downpayment and then set you up on monthly payment plans. it usually takes at least 2 years to get your braces completed. you'll have to consult with the orthodontist to get a detailed cost estimate and payment plan

My daughter just got her braces on in January. In Kansas, it costs $4,000 unless you pay it all upfront (which we did) so it was around $3,300. The regular braces and the clear braces cost the same at our dentist's office, however they said the metal ones are a lot more comfortable and are easier to clean. The clear ones usually yellow before they get taken off. My daughter has to have hers for 22-27 months. I don't know what the average is because it depends on the severity of your bite.

well it depends on what u have to have done such as if u have an over bite or ur teeth don't meet together like they r suppose to and ur dentist will let u know how long u have to wear them and last i dunno what cubes r unless u mean colored rubber bands and they change those when u go in for check-ups and u choose the color u want.
