Invisalign® is a popular choice for people who are looking to straighten their teeth. It is a discreet option that many people prefer over traditional braces. But how much does it cost? In this blog post, we will explore the cost of Invisalign® and discuss some factors that can affect the price.

What is the cost of Invisalign® treatment and what factors affect the price?

The average cost of Invisalign® treatment is $5,000. However, there are many factors that can affect the price including the severity of your case, the length of treatment, and whether you have any insurance coverage. Some people may be able to get Invisalign® for as little as $3,000 while others may have to pay up to $10,000 for their treatment.

As of the time of this publication, Southern Dental Associates is offering Invisalign® at a special price of $3,995 ($0 down and payments as low as $85/mo.)

Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign® treatment the same way they cover braces. Your insurance may pay for a certain percentage of your Invisalign® orthodontic treatment, or it may pay for a certain dollar amount. Your health savings account (HSA) or flexible spending account (FSA) may also be used to pay for Invisalign® treatment. Be sure to talk to your dental insurance provider to find out what coverage you have.

What are the benefits of Invisalign® aligners over traditional braces?

Invisalign® is a popular choice for people who are looking to straighten their teeth because it is a discreet option. Invisalign® aligners are clear, so they are much less noticeable than traditional braces. In addition, Invisalign® treatment is often shorter than traditional braces treatment. Because the aligners are removable, you can also eat whatever you want and brush and floss your teeth more easily.

Another benefit of Invisalign® is that you can see your results before you even start treatment. Using Invisalign® SmileView™, Invisalign® can simulate the outcome of your personal transformation right before your eyes. This can help you make the decision about whether or not Invisalign® is right for you.

How long does the treatment take and is it worth the investment?

The length of Invisalign® treatment varies from person to person, but it is typically shorter than traditional braces treatment. The average treatment time is about 12-18 months, but you can start seeing progress in as little as a few weeks.

Invisalign® is an investment, but many people feel that it is worth the cost. In addition to the aesthetic benefits, Invisalign® can also improve your oral health. Straight teeth are easier to clean and less likely to get cavities or other dental problems.

If you are considering Invisalign® aligners, be sure to consult with a qualified dentist or orthodontist to see if it is right for you. Southern Dental Associates offers consultations for Invisalign® treatment.

Are there any alternatives to Invisalign® that may be more affordable?

Traditional braces are typically less expensive than Invisalign®, but they are also more visible. There is also an inconvenience factor with traditional braces as you have to avoid certain foods and take extra care of your teeth.

We DO NOT recommend DIY Orthodontics which offers at-home impression kits and completely virtual consultations. A qualified Invisalign® provider like Southern Dental Associates will be able to give you a more accurate diagnosis and treatment plan, see your progress and adjust as necessary, and can detect and resolve issues that may arise during your treatment. This is something that DIY Orthodontics do not provide and can actually leave you with underlying medical issues and further costs down the road.

How do I know if I’m a good candidate for Invisalign®?

The best way to find out if you are a good candidate for Invisalign® is to consult with a qualified dentist or orthodontist. Invisalign® is designed to treat a variety of dental problems, so you may be a good candidate for Invisalign® even if you have been told that you are not a candidate for traditional braces.

What is the process for getting Invisalign®?

The first step in the Invisalign® process is to consult with a qualified dentist or orthodontist to see if Invisalign® is right for you. If you are a good candidate for Invisalign®, your provider will take x-rays, pictures, and impressions of your teeth which will be used to create your custom treatment plan. Once your treatment plan is created, you will receive your aligners. You will wear each set of aligners for about two weeks before moving on to the next set in the series. You will visit your provider about every six weeks to ensure that your treatment is on track.
