When it comes to dental health and growth in younger patients, orthodontic and orthopedic treatments help correct malocclusions and support proper development, preventing more serious issues in the future.
The cost of one treatment compared to another can vary greatly, depending on several clinical factors and the specific needs of each patient.
An orthodontic appliance for children can serve different functions: intercepting a growing malocclusion, guiding the proper development of the jawbones, correcting bad habits, or preparing the mouth for future fixed orthodontic treatment.

If you would like to know how much an orthodontic appliance for your child might cost, book a consultation at our practice. We will be happy to assess the case and provide you with all the information needed to begin a personalized orthodontic journey.

The cost of pediatric orthodontic treatment depends on several variables:

• Type of appliance: it can be removable or fixed, functional or orthopedic, depending on the case.
• Duration of treatment: longer treatments will require more frequent check-ups and adjustments over time.
• Age and developmental stage: some early therapies are simpler, others may require more long-term monitoring.
• Case complexity: depending on the diagnosis, the treatment plan may involve multiple phases or the use of different devices.

At Studio Ortodontico Albertini in Reggio Emilia, every child is followed with care, and each case requires a thorough diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.
During the first appointment, the orthodontist will carry out:

• An evaluation of dental and jaw development.
• The collection of photographic and, if needed, radiographic documentation.
• An analysis of any bad habits (such as thumb sucking or mouth breathing).
• A personalized treatment plan proposal.

Already during the first consultation, it is possible to receive an indicative estimate of the treatment cost, while a detailed quote will be provided after completing the full case study.

Studio Albertini in Reggio Emilia is known for its expertise in lingual orthodontics for adults – a service offered by very few specialists. However, the clinic is highly experienced in general orthodontics and supports young patients through every phase of their treatment, using modern tools, personalized approaches, and a welcoming environment.
The goal is not only to achieve a beautiful and functional smile, but also to ensure that the treatment experience is as positive and stress-free as possible for both children and parents.
