What is Invisalign?
Invisalign straightens teeth through aligners that are barely noticeable. That’s because they’re made from clear medical-grade plastic. Now you can avoid the silver, shiny look that comes with braces! Each aligner is tailored to meet the specifications of your smile for a perfect, comfortable fit. We will take x-rays, pictures, and impressions to make that happen. Every couple of weeks, we will get you to pick up a new set of aligners. All aligners gradually shift teeth into the correct position throughout treatment. For many patients, treatment takes 12-18 months to complete.
What it’s like wearing Invisalign aligners
We insist that most patients wear their aligners for 20-22 hours per day. This is necessary to get the optimal outcome within a specific timeline. The thing that patients really love is that they can take out their aligners when necessary. Here are a few reasons they can be removed:
- brushing and flossing
- dates
- eating and drinking
- playing sports.
What about the cost of Invisalign treatment?
Invisalign costs a bit more than braces. The range is anywhere from $3,500 to $8,000. Factors that affect your cost are the length of treatment, the complexity of your bite, and your insurance/benefits coverage (if applicable).
