How it works
How the quote comparison works.
The first job is not finding the cheapest provider. It is turning different numbers into a comparison that means the same thing.
1. Check the number without giving us anything
Use the homepage calculator to place a quoted price against the comparison ranges we publish. The calculator runs in your browser and does not require an email address.
2. Make the quote itemized
Confirm the exact procedure, professional fee, facility fee, anesthesia, implants or materials, medications, pre-op testing and routine follow-up. If one quote includes six things and another includes three, the totals are not directly comparable.
3. Decide whether you want provider responses
If you request comparable quotes, the form asks for explicit permission to share the minimum needed details with up to 3 relevant providers. You can use the educational tools without giving that permission.
4. Verify before you commit
Provider inclusion or a paid introduction is not an endorsement. Verify the individual clinician, facility, proposed treatment, cancellation terms and follow-up plan using current primary sources before paying a deposit.
5. Compare the all-in total
For travel, include airfare, lodging, local transportation, time away, follow-up and a realistic contingency. Sometimes the best answer is a domestic transparent-price option. Sometimes the international gap is large enough to justify the trip.
