Clear aligners move teeth over time in suitable cases. Treatment requires assessment of the teeth, gums, bite and supporting bone. It may require attachments, elastics, enamel reduction between teeth, extractions or additional orthodontic treatment; any enamel removal is irreversible.
We offer Invisalign at competitive fees because we believe everyone should have access to high-quality dental care. Flexible, interest-free payment plans are available, allowing the total cost to be spread across the duration of your treatment.
Risks and limitations: Pressure, tenderness, mouth irritation and speech changes can occur. Tooth decay, gum inflammation or recession, root shortening and loss of tooth vitality requiring further treatment are possible. Some movements may not be achieved, and refinements or a change of treatment may be needed. Risk varies with dental health, previous trauma and the movements planned.
After treatment, long-term retention and review are usually needed. Teeth can still move over time. Alternatives may include braces, another suitable orthodontic approach or no treatment, depending on the clinical assessment.

Invisalign treatment involves changing your set of removable aligners every two weeks. Each aligner is individually designed for your teeth. Your teeth will gradually move week by week. Essentially they are like braces. However, there are many benefits to Invisalign.
Clear aligners are removable appliances used to move teeth in suitable cases. They must be worn as prescribed and reviewed during treatment. They may affect speech and cause discomfort or mouth irritation. Suitability, treatment time and results vary, and refinements may be needed. A digital simulation is a planning aid and does not guarantee the outcome.
Pressure, tenderness and mouth irritation can occur. Discomfort may be more noticeable during the first few days after starting or changing aligners, but persistence and severity vary. Contact the practice for severe or worsening pain, persistent ulcers, loose or damaged appliances, or a sudden bite change. Follow the prescribed wear, cleaning and review schedule.
The cost of braces varies depending on the complexity as well as the length of time. Traditional metal braces range from $4,000 to $8,000. To give you an accurate costing it would be necessary to have an initial consultation to assess your teeth and your smile.
