Braces and clear aligners in the Philippines: what they cost

Updated 31 October 2026

In the Philippines traditional metal braces cost about ₱40,000 to ₱80,000 and clear aligners about ₱120,000 to ₱275,000, approximately, according to clinic websites and cost guides, October 2026. Describe your bite and what you need in a BlaBlaPrice request, and clinics reply in the chat with their own offer, price and payment terms.

Retainers and what the price includes

Ask whether the quoted price includes the retainers used after treatment. A traditional metal retainer is listed at about ₱5,000 to ₱20,000 in the Philippines, and invisible retainers cost more. Ask also for the check-up schedule, the adjustments and what happens if a bracket breaks. One promotion we found quoted a metal braces package of about ₱25,000 to ₱35,000 with a ₱4,000 down payment, so read what the package covers.

Payment and instalments

Some clinics take a small down payment and spread the rest over instalments, so compare the total for the whole treatment, not the first payment. Clear aligners cost more because the complexity of the case drives the price, and complex cases can reach ₱300,000 or more. Ask for the total in pesos in writing before you start.

Choosing the orthodontist and the season

Ask which orthodontist will treat you, how long they have practised and how many cases like yours they have done, since experience is part of what you pay for. Clinics in Manila, Quezon City, Makati, Cebu City and Davao City price the same system differently, so get quotes from two or three. Treatment does not follow the seasons, but October 2026 is in the wet months, so plan appointments around heavy rain and travel.

Write your bite problem, the system you prefer and your city in your own words in the BlaBlaPrice chat. The AI asks for missing details, such as whether one or both jaws are treated and your budget, then looks through sellers' websites and clinic price lists in the Philippines and shows the prices and businesses it found. Clinics registered on BlaBlaPrice reply in the chat with their own offer, and your contact details stay hidden until you decide. Related pages: dentistry and dental services.
