Why is there no single price for every patient?

Straightening teeth requires a plan for your teeth, gums and bite. Crowding, gaps and bite problems can require different movements, and clear aligners are not suitable for everyone. An assessment establishes the treatment needed before the team can quote its cost.

At Fábrica do Sorriso, the proposal considers your case and priorities, including your routine and budget. The brand is one part of the decision; clinical suitability and follow-up matter too. You receive the options and prices in writing before deciding.

What happens during the aligner assessment?

The team examines your oral health and bite. The planning process described by Fábrica do Sorriso uses an intraoral scan to create a digital model and a simulation of planned movements. The team explains the examinations needed and compares treatment options.

The first private dental consultation costs €45 and includes examination and intraoral X-rays. A panoramic X-ray, where indicated, is €35 extra. Confirm the cost of other records and examinations; do not assume the scan or every part of planning is included in that €45 fee.

Which costs should I check in the quote?

Compare the full treatment rather than just a monthly payment or the initial number of aligners. Ask what is included and which circumstances could lead to further charges.

Use the following questions to understand the proposal. They are not a promise that every component is included in every quote; your written plan confirms the conditions.

  • Planning

    consultation, scan, X-rays and other necessary records.

  • Aligners

    the chosen system, proposed stages and delivery of sets.

  • Follow-up

    review appointments and possible plan adjustments.

  • Refinements

    conditions for additional aligners if needed.

  • Retention

    retainers and care after active treatment.

  • Replacements

    conditions and costs if an aligner is lost or damaged.

Invisalign, Angel Aligner or Spark: how do I choose?

Fábrica do Sorriso presents these aligner systems and explains its recommendation after examining your case. Ask about the proposed plan, follow-up and investment rather than assuming one brand is always better or cheaper.

Fixed braces may also be an option. Orthodontic assessment considers your bite and ability to follow wear instructions. A digital simulation helps you understand the proposal but does not replace clinical assessment or guarantee the final result.

How long does treatment take, and what does daily use involve?

Fábrica do Sorriso gives a reference duration of 6 to 18 months, depending on complexity. Your timetable is individual: tooth response, aligner wear and progress at reviews can change the schedule.

Aligners are removed for eating and oral hygiene. The usual published guidance is 20 to 22 hours of daily wear, with reviews commonly every 6 to 8 weeks; follow the schedule prescribed for you. Retainers and ongoing care help maintain tooth position after active treatment.

How can I pay and book at FDS?

Choose Almada, Fernão Ferro or Baixa da Banheira and request an aligner or Invisalign assessment. Bring details of earlier treatment and any insurance or agreement so reception can confirm the applicable conditions.

You can discuss payment options including Cofidis Pay, subject to Cofidis approval and terms. Ask for the total cost as well as the instalment. Your quote should explain what you pay, when you pay and what happens if the treatment plan needs adjustment.
