What this report means
This is a sample of practices in Phoenix that publicly disclose pricing, not a citywide average and not a representative survey of every dentist. We publish it because real local posted prices are more useful than hiding the underlying observations behind one unsupported number.
Comparable local price groups
We calculate a local midpoint median only when at least two observations share a reasonably comparable category and pricing unit.
| Category | Prices | Low | Median | High | Unit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clear aligners / orthodontics | 3 | $2,025 | $2,995 | $3,675 | treatment |
| Retainers | 3 | $250 | $375 | $400 | appliance |

How we built this local report
- We collected only prices publicly posted on dental or orthodontic practice websites.
- Exact prices and published ranges are preserved instead of replacing them with an invented local average.
- When a range is used in a comparable-category median, we use its midpoint consistently.
- We publish local pages only when the current dataset contains at least two practice websites and eight observations for the city.
- Prices and promotions can change after the observation date; follow the source link before relying on a current fee.
