Your smile is often the first thing people notice. If your smile isn’t how you’d like it to be due to misaligned teeth or unsightly spaces, Invisalign® could be the metal-free orthodontic solution you’ve always wanted.

How Can Invisalign Help?

The Invisalign aligner tray system consists of a series of clear plastic trays that are fitted to your teeth and worn daily for 22 hours. After a set is worn daily for two weeks, it is replaced by the next set. Over time, the trays realign your teeth to the desired positions. You can remove your trays to eat, drink, or brush your teeth. The system is used to correct a variety of common orthodontic conditions such as crowding, gaps between teeth, rotated or crooked teeth, and bite problems. Because they are made from clear plastic instead of metal, aligner trays are virtually invisible and won’t embarrass you like traditional braces.

Is Invisalign Cost Manageable on a Budget?

You may be surprised to learn that Invisalign cost is often comparable to the cost of traditional orthodontic devices. The final price is determined by the amount of repositioning your teeth need. Complex problems may take longer to correct, and this can increase your Invisalign treatment cost. If you’re considering getting Invisalign in Mishawaka, you can obtain more details from one of our qualified dentists. Call us today to request an evaluation.

Do Dental Insurance Policies Pay for Treatment With Invisalign?

Invisalign insurance coverage can help reduce the cost of treatment. Contact your insurance company to obtain more details about your coverage eligibility. If you’re not covered, we may be able to help you manage your Invisalign cost through our convenient financing options.

Will It Take a Long Time to Fix My Smile?

Invisalign treatment time is unique to each patient. The amount of movement needed to correct your condition and your response to treatment are factors that can affect the duration of treatment. According to our Invisalign dentists, treatment can take anywhere from 10 months to two years, but the average adult usually obtains full results within a year.

How Are Invisalign Dentists Different?

Invisalign dentists are also licensed general dentists or orthodontists who receive special training that gives them the skills and knowledge to use the invisible aligner system to its full advantage. Our dentists use aligner trays to give patients beautiful, new smiles in the shortest possible time frame.

Invisalign vs Braces: Exploring Your Options

If you have mild or moderate tooth alignment problems, it’s likely that both traditional braces and aligners could correct them equally well. The decision to use aligners is usually based on the system’s superior aesthetic. People with severe or complex alignment disorders may actually obtain better results from metal braces. When faced with an Invisalign vs braces dilemma, the best person to provide advice is your dentist.

Top Benefits of Invisalign Aligners

  • A natural, metal-free smile throughout the treatment process
  • The freedom to enjoy your favorite foods and beverages
  • Shorter office visits and fewer adjustments
  • Trays can be removed easily at will
  • No metal wires to poke your gums and inner cheeks
  • Better oral hygiene

Can Anyone with Orthodontic Problems Get Invisalign?

Although most adults needing minor orthodontic correction are good candidates for treatment, aligners aren’t ideal for everyone. Children and patients with severe abnormalities can often get better results from metal braces. Only a qualified dentist can determine if aligners are right for your unique needs.

What Happens after Invisalign Treatment?

After your treatment period ends, you may need to wear Invisalign retainers for several hours each day to maintain your results.
