What is invisalign and how does it work?
Invisalign is an alternative to traditional braces. Invisalign is a set of hardly noticeable clear retainer-like aligners that shift your teeth over time to correct issues with your smile like crowding, overbite, underbite, crossbite, gaps and crooked teeth. Invisalign is a discreet way to improve your smile, without having to come to the office monthly.
How do I start Invisalign treatment, and How do I know if I'm a candidate?
You should start by having a comprehensive exam, cleaning and full mouth of radiographs. Then we will take a scan using our iTero scanner, and then we will launch a simulation and take a series of photos to ensure that you are a candidate. If you are a candidate, we will then create and review a treatment plan that includes the number of aligners and time you will spend in each set. Patients seeking invisalign treatment must also be willing to wear their aligners for up to 22 hours a day. There are multiple factors that can disqualify someone from getting invisalign, so the best way to find out if you are a candidate is by scheduling a consultation or exam.
How much does invisalign cost? Will insurance cover it? Are there Financing options?
The cost of Invisalign varies from patient to patient. Most cases cost between $3800 – $4500 depending on how much correction is needed. Some insurance plans do cover a portion of orthodontic treatment, so be sure to call and ask about how much coverage you have. We do offer a financing option for invisalign, called LendingPoint. If you are interested in LendingPoint make sure to ask us for an application link at your next visit.
