Understanding Invisalign
Clear Aligners
Invisalign clear aligners represent a modern orthodontic marvel, offering a non-invasive, discreet solution for correcting malocclusion issues such as crooked teeth or a bad bite. Unlike traditional metal braces, Invisalign eliminates the need for unsightly metal brackets and wires. These clear, removable aligners can be taken out for eating, brushing, and flossing, providing a convenient and comfortable orthodontic experience. Custom-made to fit your unique dental profile, Invisalign gradually guides your teeth into their desired positions.
Cost of Invisalign
The cost of Invisalign treatment can vary, ranging from $3,000 to $8,000 on average. This cost depends on factors such as the complexity of your malocclusion and the duration of your treatment. While Invisalign may be slightly more expensive than traditional braces, the benefits of its discreet and expedient treatment often outweigh the cost.
If you possess dental insurance, it's worth checking if your plan covers a portion of your Invisalign treatment expenses. Contact your insurance provider for specific details on your coverage.

Our experienced dentists can help you make an informed decision regarding the best orthodontic treatment for your unique circumstances.

1. Consultation
Your Invisalign experience begins with a consultation at our practice. During this visit, our experienced dentist will take x-rays and impressions of your teeth to create a precise 3D model of your mouth. This model serves as the foundation for a customized treatment plan that outlines the exact tooth movements required throughout your treatment.
2. Custom Aligners
Once your treatment plan is perfected, a series of custom aligner trays are created exclusively for you. You will wear these aligners for 20-22 hours a day, gradually progressing through the series as your teeth shift towards their ideal positions.
3. Progress Monitoring
Regular check-ups with your dentist are an essential part of the Invisalign process. These appointments, scheduled every 6-8 weeks, allow us to monitor your progress and provide you with new aligners as needed, ensuring your treatment stays on track.
