Invisalign®

About Invisalign®                                         

Using advanced 3-D computer-imaging technology, The Invisalign® system is the virtually invisible way to straighten your teeth. Invisalign lays out your complete treatment plan, from the beginning position of your teeth to the end result desired position. Then that same computer technology will develop a series of clear aligners, custom-made for your teeth – and your teeth only – to move them little by little. Each aligner is worn for approximately 2 weeks before moving to the next in the series, until the final positioning of your teeth is realized. Your Invisalign treatment length is determined by your doctor and is based solely on your specific needs.

What are benefits of Invisalign®?

Invisalign aligners are virtually invisible "braces," making Invisalign a perfect fit with your lifestyle and interactions with others.

Invisalign is removable. Unlike braces, you can brush and floss as you normally would for fresh breath and good oral hygiene. You will also enjoy the flexibility to eat and drink what you want during process by simply removing the aligners. There are no metal brackets or wires with the Invisalign system that could cause irritation to your mouth. Plus since your office visits during treatment don't involve metal or wire adjustments, you'll likely spend less time in the doctor's chair.

And finally, Invisalign allows you to view your virtual results and treatment plan before you start so you can see how your straight teeth will look when your treatment is complete.

 

 

What’s the cost?

We know cost of orthodontic work is a big concern for anyone considering treatment. Just like other medical treatments, only your doctor can determine the cost based on your specific needs taking into consideration factors like what you want corrected or the difficulty of your case, how long you are in treatment, your orthodontic insurance coverage, in addition to other factors determined by the dentist. In most cases, Invisalign treatment is comparable to the cost of traditional braces. In the U.S., the cost of Invisalign treatment ranges from $3,500 to $8,000, with the national average at about $5,000. Our costs are typically less than the national average, but you need a consultation with the doctor to get an individualized cost analysis. Our office offers payment options that include zero percent interest and low interest plans so that cost does not interfere with you getting the smile you deserve.
