FAQs about Invisalign cost answered
Have some questions before investing in invisible aligners?
At Clear Braces Direct, our team always aims to be completely open with our patients about areas such as Invisalign cost London, how long the treatment will take and of course, if you are suitable for it.
Here, our team looks at 5 of the most common questions that we receive about Invisalign cost London, to help you decide if the treatment is right for you.
Is it expensive?
The key question many of our patients have about Invisalign cost London is relating to its price.
And it is easy to see why; many of those who use it are adults and are thus either paying for this treatment out of their own pocket, or they may be using financing options to assist them with the cost.
But it is tricky to say if your unique treatment with this aligner will be more expensive or not, as there are many variables that can impact the cost, which we will look at in a moment. For a better estimate of how much this treatment will cost you, please talk to our team.
What impacts the cost of the treatment?
A key factor that will impact the cost of this procedure is the severity of the misalignment or protrusion that is being corrected.
If you have a mild to moderate case of dental misalignment, then it is likely that you will only need the standard 12-14 aligners and that the treatment will be corrected in around 3-6 months. But for more extreme cases, it can take longer, meaning more intervention may be needed from our team, and thus the price will go up.
Can I use online aligners for less money?
You may have read online that you can opt for other online aligners for less expense, which typically involves a dental mould kit being sent to your home and then the aligners being made from this.
However, this can create its own set of problems; if you have the oversight of a dental team, then yes, the process will cost a bit more, but you can rest assured in the security that there will not be an issue with moulds being taken incorrectly or other complications.
Will I need to pay for replacement aligners?
At our practice, we know that sometimes, accidents happen or that you may simply misplace your aligners.
And so, we are happy to be able to offer our patients who are using invisible aligners with us security against this potential issue; for an additional fee each month, you can protect your dental investment. So, if you lose an aligner during the course of the treatment, you will not have to pay anything extra and a new one will be ordered for you promptly.
Should you lose an invisible aligner, we advise you to switch back to the previous aligner and not move on to the next one, as this can cause problems with the dental realignment process.
Is it worth it?
Many patients have concerns that when it comes to using invisible aligners, the treatment will not work and may just be an expensive waste of time.
However, many of our patients who have used this brand of invisible aligner have reported that they were impressed with the discretion that accompanied the aligners, alongside being pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the aligners felt and how easy they were to slot into everyday life.
