What changes the final price

The final price for invisalign changes when the diagnosis changes. The common variables are:

  • Material choice or implant brand.
  • Number of teeth, arches, or visits.
  • Whether extractions, bone grafting, scans, temporaries, retainers, or night guards are needed.
  • Whether treatment can be completed in one trip or needs a second visit.
  • Whether local NZ follow-up is needed after returning home.

How to compare quotes fairly

Do not compare a local all-inclusive quote with an overseas unit price. Put every item on the same line: scans, consultation, temporary restorations, final restorations, implant components, crown material, grafting, sedation, warranty documents, and review appointments.

For Picasso, use the itemised NZD quote and the KB price list. For New Zealand, use your written local quote or the city benchmark pages linked above.

If your likely saving is still meaningful after flights and accommodation, send your photos and any X-rays for a written NZD plan. If the saving disappears after travel, local treatment in New Zealand is the more practical choice.
