How Invisalign Works
Instead of the traditional orthodontics model, Invisalign features a series of clear, custom aligners that are crafted from high-quality plastic. Each specific aligner represents a different stage of your smile’s improvement, and the patient’s job is to wear them as directed and switch to the next one in their set at regular intervals (usually every couple of weeks). The total amount of aligners will differ between cases, but most patients can expect to wear about 20-29 overall.
Who Can Invisalign Help?
If you are interested in straightening your teeth with Invisalign, we have good news: clear aligners can be used to successfully correct several common orthodontic concerns, including overcrowding and open bites. So, don’t hesitate to give us a call so we can schedule a consultation and learn all about your dental needs. In the meantime, you can read on to learn more about the orthodontic issues Invisalign can correct!
Crowded Teeth
Oftentimes, patients visit us because they are unhappy with the appearance of their smile. However, many orthodontic issues, including overcrowding, can increase the likelihood of tooth decay and periodontal disease as well. That’s why we recommend scheduling a consultation with us to explore your orthodontic treatment options. The good news is that Invisalign is as effective as it is discreet, ensuring your teeth are moved into their properly aligned positions in an average of just 12 to 18 months!
Gaps Between Teeth
Sometimes, patients visit us because they have a small space between their two front teeth. Other times, they come in because they have large gaps caused by abnormal jaw growth or missing teeth. Fortunately, Invisalign is often a solution. So, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with us. If we determine that clear aligners are right for you, then you’ll be able to see your teeth move closer and closer together before your eyes!
Overbite
What if your upper teeth protrude beyond your lower ones more than they should? Does that mean you have to wear traditional braces? Actually, Invisalign has helped many patients with mild to moderate overbites, so there’s a chance that your journey to straighter teeth and a healthier bite will be metal-free! The best way to find out is by scheduling a consultation with us so we can learn all about your dental needs and smile goals.
Underbite
If you have the opposite problem (your lower teeth sit in front of your upper ones), we also recommend getting an appointment with us on the calendar. After all, the sooner you do, the sooner we can determine if you’re a candidate for Invisalign. If you are, then we will create a custom treatment plan designed to bring your teeth and bite into proper alignment – all with comfortable, removable, and basically invisible trays.
Crossbite
Like the other bite problems on this list, crossbites can negatively impact the look and function of your smile. Once again, Invisalign can help! In addition to the aligners, other orthodontic accessories may be added to your treatment plan, like buttons, attachments, and rubber bands, to improve the position of your teeth and your bite as seamlessly as possible.
Open Bite
If you can’t bite down all the way because there is space between your upper and lower teeth, then you likely have an open bite. Although traditional braces were once the only treatment option, Invisalign has proven to be effective at correcting mild to moderate cases. So, don’t hesitate to take the next step by scheduling a consultation with us to find out if you’re a candidate for Invisalign!
The Benefits of Invisalign
There are several reasons why Invisalign remains one of the most popular teeth-straightening solutions! When worn, the clear plastic aligners have a pleasing and subtle appearance against your smile, which allows patients to maintain confidence throughout their treatment. They’re also removable, which means that you can continue to enjoy all of your favorite foods and brush and floss like normal. Plus, they require fewer check-in visits, and the average treatment timeline is 12-18 months.
Understanding the Cost of Invisalign
Patients often assume that there’s a flat fee for Invisalign. In reality, the cost varies depending on several factors – that’s why the initial consultation is so important! As always, our team will go the extra mile to make understanding the financial side of your treatment easy. In addition to providing you with a price estimate and answering any questions you have, we can review all the ways you can make clear aligner treatment fit into your budget, like joining our dental savings plan. In the meantime, you can read on to learn more on the topic of price!
A Few Factors That Affect the Cost of Invisalign
At your initial consultation, your Roselle Park dentist will review your dental history, take a look at your X-rays, examine your teeth and gums, and learn all about your smile goals. In the process, they will determine if you need to straighten both arches of teeth, how complex your case is, the type of retainer you need, and, ultimately, if you are a good candidate for Invisalign. If the answer is “yes,” then they will move onto the next step: reviewing the financial solutions available to you.
Invisalign vs. Mail-In Aligners: Which Costs More?
The large majority of the time, mail-in aligners cost less. Why? To start, they skip the initial consultation completely and use DIY impressions to create the trays. Furthermore, the treatment plans usually aren’t created or overseen by a licensed dental professional. In other words, they cut corners to cut costs. That’s why professional dental organizations don’t support these alternatives either.
In short, Invisalign will likely require a higher upfront investment, but it’s well worth it.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Invisalign?
Although dental insurance providers typically cover preventive and restorative care, there are some that include partial coverage of orthodontic treatments, like Invisalign, too. So, if you are currently insured, take a look at the fine print on your plan to see what is and isn’t covered! At Roselle Park Dental & Implants, we accept in and out-of-network plans from many popular providers, including Aetna, Delta Dental, Guardian, and Principal. If you have any questions or need help utilizing your available coverage, then get in touch with us to schedule an appointment!
