FAQs about Invisalign cost
Most people in 2022 who are looking to undertake orthodontic treatment will have heard about invisible aligners. They are sleek, easy to use and, of course, visually discreet, meaning that they are very popular with adult and teenage dental patients.
But most people are apprehensive about approaching their dental team to undertake this treatment because they fear that the cost will be extortionate and that they simply won’t be able to afford it. This is not the case, but many people want to know what goes into the cost of invisible aligners.
At Clear Braces Direct, we have been working with clear aligners for over ten years and know everything about Invisalign cost London, how to keep it down and how to ensure that you get the most out of the treatment. We will always aim to help you reduce the cost of treatment wherever possible as we know as well as anybody that money doesn’t grow on trees.
So, without further ado, in this FAQ section, we answer common queries about Invisalign cost London and how we will help you to keep it as low as possible.
Are the aligners expensive?
When it comes to orthodontic care in adult life, most of the treatments are expensive, but invisible aligners are considered one of the cheapest options. This is because as a procedure, it takes, on average, 3 to 6 months, requires few, if any, trips to see our team and can be done entirely remotely if desired. So, Invisalign cost London is very low, especially when compared to fixed metal braces.
What is the cost made up of?
The cost of orthodontic treatment is generally made-up of the fitting, the time spent in the dental chair and the equipment used. With invisible aligners, you will still have to undertake an intraoral scan or dental mould, the aligners will have to be printed, and of course, you will need help and advice from our team regarding the treatment. Additionally, if you require any extra help, this will also need to be factored into the final costs.
Are additional aligners extra?
As a side note, if you undertake invisible aligners and damage or lose one of them in the process, it will need to be replaced, so you will need to contact our team to have additional aligners made and sent to you. This will usually cost extra, and while these are being printed, our team recommends wearing the last aligner in the series; do not skip on to the next one.
Is the associated app free?
Yes, the associated downloadable app for smartphones is free, and you can use it at any time to contact us or submit queries about the treatment.
Does your surgery offer funding for this treatment?
At Clear Braces Direct, we do offer funding and financing for the treatment of invisible aligners. However, you will need to pass a credit check and be deemed suitable before we can offer this to you. So, if this sounds like something you would be interested in, please call us for more information.
Invisalign with Clear Braces Direct for ease and convenience
Invisalign London is a modern and highly successful method of straightening teeth, designed to suit the generation of today and made popular by its discreet aligners, which can be used to move your teeth. Speak to us at Clear Braces Direct to undergo treatment with Invisalign London conveniently and at your discretion. Clear Braces Direct is great for patients who suffer from mild or moderate dental alignment issues.

Perhaps you have slightly misaligned or crooked teeth that affect the appearance of your smile. If so, visit our website and find out how you can straighten your teeth at your convenience.
Digital scanning
With Clear Braces Direct, you do not have to spend hours in the dentist’s chair; instead, we can deliver the aligners to your address, and you can carry out the process in the comfort of your home whilst we monitor your progress online. We offer a free consultation and a three-dimensional scan to find out whether Invisalign London is suitable for you. This scan can help us put together a digital image of your mouth, and Invisalign’s very own Align software will show how your teeth need to be moved to achieve a neatly aligned smile. The software will then reverse the steps and create a series of aligners that will be designed to move your teeth gently over a certain number of weeks to reach that final result.
Quick treatment time
Since Invisalign is designed for those with minor orthodontic issues, treatment can often take as little as six months, and you will achieve noticeable results. For patients with mild or moderate problems, it may take up to 12 months; however, the results will benefit the patient for the rest of their life.
Visit our website, leave us your contact details and send us a selfie so that we can carry out a brief assessment and invite you for a three-dimensional scan at a time and location of your choice. You can visit us in London or Newcastle and let us create a tailored treatment plan for you.

Want to know more about at-home aligners? Here, we answer common questions about how we provide straight teeth at home London.
Who is suitable for getting at-home aligners?
Most people who would be suitable for aligners, in general, would be able to get straight teeth at home London with invisible aligners.
You will need to meet with our team or send us a photo via our website so that we can assess whether you would be suitable for treatment, but as many as 97% of adults who have a dental misalignment are.
How do you use them?
Using aligners at home is simple! When they arrive at your door, they will do so in a set order, which you will need to wear for them to work correctly.
Depending on the advice of our team, you will need to wear them for around 22 hours per day. To clean them, simply rinse them under a cold water tap and use a soft-bristled toothbrush to remove the debris. Under any circumstances, do not use hot water to clean your aligners since this can cause them to warp out of shape.
How long do they take to work?
When you use aligners at home, they should take around 3-6 months to work on average; this may vary depending on the severity of the dental misalignment and how often you adhere to the daily wear time.
For more complex cases of dental misalignment, you can expect the treatment to take up to a year, but our team will be able to advise you on your unique treatment timeline.
Does it cost more to have them sent to my home?
In a word, no. In fact, for many people, having their teeth straightened at home is more affordable simply because they do not have to travel to see our team every 4-6 weeks, and there are no additional costs regarding adjusting or moving your teeth.
Please note that if any additional or replacement aligners are needed, this will push the cost of the treatment up.
How do I report an issue?
If you suspect a problem with your aligners, please contact our team at Clear Braces Direct via the Invisalign app or by phone. If there is a severe problem, please note that you may need to come into our surgery.
Similarly, if you have lost an aligner and need to order a replacement, contact our team as soon as possible to prevent delays in the straightening process.
Invisalign in London to correct crooked and misaligned teeth
Crooked and misaligned teeth affect the appearance of both your smile and your whole face and can have a detrimental impact on your self-confidence and your dental health at the same time. Thanks to the advances in dental technology, there are many different ways that you can address crooked teeth. It is important that you try to do this sooner rather than later so that you do not cause significant or even irreversible damage to your teeth since this could have a huge negative impact in the future.
You need to speak to us at Clear Braces Direct and find out about Invisalign London. Invisalign London is the most popular choice of treatment for straightening teeth across the world, and it has helped treat around 13 million smiles so far. At Clear Braces Direct, we have helped correct almost 7000 smiles and are here to help you straighten your teeth as well. Thanks to Invisalign, straightening teeth is now easier than ever before. Teeth can be straightened out quickly and effectively within a short period.
Invisalign vs traditional orthodontics
Invisalign has proven to be an excellent alternative to traditional teeth-straightening methods. Traditionally, teeth were straightened using fixed metal braces made of brackets and wires that were quite visible after being fitted. These devices are still available and highly effective at straightening teeth, but to meet modern demands, there is now a range of discreet alternatives to traditional orthodontics. Invisalign is different in that it does not use metal wires or brackets to straighten teeth. Instead, treatment with Invisalign involves using clear thermoplastic aligners that are designed to be almost invisible when worn; the aligners must be worn over your teeth and can be taken out and placed back in as necessary.
Is Invisalign suitable for you?
For the treatment to work successfully, your teeth and gums must be healthy and strong, to begin with. Regular visits to the dentist from an early age are important in maintaining dental health. If you avoid dental checkups, then plaque and tartar may build up in your mouth, resulting in tooth decay and gum disease. If you suffer from either of these problems, then you will need to undergo restorative treatment before you begin treatment with Invisalign.
Once you are ready, visit our website, fill out your details and upload a selfie so that we can assess whether or not Invisalign is suitable for you. If we believe that your teeth can be improved with Invisalign, we will contact you, and you can begin your journey to a healthier and happier smile very soon.
Invisalign London with Clear Braces Direct is highly convenient, and you can carry out the entire process in the comfort of your own home. Within an average time of 6 to 12 months, you will have a neatly aligned smile that you can proudly show off to the rest of the world.
Looking for a simpler way to straighten teeth with Invisalign in London?
Invisalign London is one of the most popular orthodontic procedures that can straighten your teeth using clear plastic aligners. Unlike traditional orthodontic treatment, there is no need for fixed braces and wires; instead, Invisalign uses aligners that are removable, highly convenient and comfortable when worn. Visit our website and find out about Invisalign London with Clear Braces Direct. Invisalign aligners are made of a BPA-free thermoplastic that is elasticated and works by putting pressure on the teeth to move them into a neater formation.
How does it work?
The aligners work in a series and will be individually designed and manufactured to fit your teeth precisely and work together to move them into more desirable positions. Each of these aligners needs to be worn for approximately two weeks, during which they will move your teeth by about 0.25 mm, after which that aligner will no longer be effective, and you must move on to the next aligner in the sequence.
You have to work your way through the sequence of aligners, making sure that each one is kept in your mouth for approximately 22 hours a day. After you have worked your way through the first few aligners, you will find your teeth slowly moving into a favourable and more attractive position. The aligners are removable, so you can take them out as necessary, but ideally, you should only take them before you clean your teeth or have a meal so that they can work effectively.
Looking after your teeth
Compliance is the key to successfully straightening your teeth with Invisalign, and within a few months, you will find that you have a more attractive, neatly aligned and symmetrical smile that will help you enjoy better dental health. When your teeth are neatly aligned, it is easier to keep them clean since there would be fewer hard-to-reach areas for bacteria to linger. By maintaining good dental hygiene whilst undergoing treatment, you can enjoy good dental health. This is because, with removable aligners, you can brush and floss your teeth as usual, so there is less chance of developing tooth decay or gum disease, which is sometimes seen in patients with fixed braces.
Invisalign London has many advantages, so if you have been thinking about addressing your dental alignment issues, visit our website to find out just how easy and convenient it can be to straighten your teeth with our team at Clear Braces Direct. At Clear Braces Direct, we have different treatment plans to meet your dental requirements and personal preferences, and we are here to make the process as easy and simple as possible. We will monitor you through the app, and you can contact us regarding any concerns whilst we make sure that the process is coming along successfully. Invisalign has helped straighten millions of smiles across the world, and if you get in touch with our team at Clear Braces Direct today, then you could also have a brand new smile in just a few months.
Does Invisalign cost too much? A guide to what makes up the price
Do you want to get straighter teeth using aligners but are worried about the overall cost?
At Clear Braces Direct, we know all there is to know about invisible aligners and will always aim to make your realignment process as straightforward as possible. From the initial scan to the overall Invisalign cost London, we will be there to advise you at each step. Great!
So, what exactly makes up the Invisalign cost London?
Initial assessment
The most important part of the realignment process is the initial assessment, during which we will assess whether or not you are suitable for invisible aligners. A large part of the Invisalign cost London lies in the assessment and determination by our team of whether or not you are suitable for the aligners.
Scan/mould
Depending on whether you opt to have your aligners printed and used remotely or have our team be more involved, there will be a stage early on in which you will need to have either an intraoral scan or a mould taken. The mould will be sent directly to your home for at-home aligners, but in the clinic, we will use a scan.
An intraoral scan is more precise and involves using a sophisticated piece of equipment, so this may cost a bit more than a dental mould.
Printing the aligners
There have been leaps and bounds the world over regarding the use of 3D printers. And when your scan or mould is taken and the software has decided where the pressure or vector points need to be, this will then be applied to an aligner shape and printed using a 3D printer. The printing, the materials and the expertise involved in this stage are very specialised and will be added to the cost of the procedure. Luckily, this step happens fairly quickly, so you can expect our team to receive your set of aligners within two weeks after the scan.
Updates and advice
It may seem that when you have your teeth straightened using invisible aligners, you are the one doing all the work! You have to switch between aligners, report issues and take photos. But with each photo you send, our team will need to assess the movement of your teeth and offer advice if needed; this, as well as any visits to our clinic for emergency appointments, will be added to the cost of the aligners.
Replacement aligners
There may come a point during your treatment when you lose or break one of your aligners.
Rather than skip on to the next one in the series, which you should not do without the approval of our team, you should contact us to have a replacement made. This process can take up to two weeks, so we advise that you keep all of your previously worn aligners until the process is over; you can wear the last aligner in the series if you lose or damage one. Replacement aligners will usually add to the overall cost of the treatment.

So, how exactly can you get straight teeth at home London with our team? What is the process? Read on to find out!
Go to our website
Firstly, you will need to go to our website. Here, you can send our team a photo of your smile; this will allow us to assess whether or not you are suitable to have straight teeth at home London using Invisalign aligners. If we determine you are suitable, we will request your address to send out a kit.
Take the mould
The kits will arrive at your home within 1 to 2 weeks after you have applied for them online and will have within it a dental mould, which you will be required to use to take an imprint of your teeth. This process is simple to do and comes with a set of instructions, so don’t worry. Once the impression has been taken, you need to send it back to our team, and we will use it to create your aligners. In a typical set, there will be between 12 and 14 aligners, and you need to wear each one for around two weeks at a time. The process of creating the aligners can take up to 6 weeks, so be patient.
Wear the aligners
The aligners will then be sent directly to your home by our team, and when they arrive, you will notice that they come in a set order. For the aligner to straighten your teeth, you will need to wear them for around 22 hours per day or as directed by our team. To keep them clean, you will need to rinse them under a cold water tap each day and remove any food debris stuck to them with a toothbrush.
Stay in touch
We will be able to assess how successful your realignment process is when you send us photos of your smile; you’ll need to do this once a week. You need to send these images to us via the Invisalign app, and we will send you the instructions back.
Wear retainers
Once the treatment has been completed, you will need to wear a retainer; this ensures that your teeth, which have moved into new positions, do not revert to their previous alignment.

Advantages of Invisalign
There are many advantages of Invisalign, especially for patients who have been reluctant to undergo traditional orthodontic treatment. In comparison to traditional orthodontic braces, Invisalign offers patients an easy and straightforward method of straightening their teeth.
Many patients, especially those who are unhappy with or self-conscious about the appearance of their smiles, are reluctant to speak to their dentists about straightening their teeth because they are scared of drawing further attention to their mouths by undergoing traditional orthodontic treatment. Patients who suffer from dental anxiety or phobia are also hesitant to straighten their teeth because they see traditional braces as an invasive procedure, often deemed painful or at least uncomfortable, lasting for several months or even years.
Invisalign can address all these issues and lets you straighten your teeth discreetly and without much discomfort. The braces are clear and almost invisible when worn, and they will be custom-made to fit your teeth accurately so that you will be comfortable wearing them.
Studies and surveys have shown that Invisalign offers an excellent combination of comfort, efficacy and discretion, which is not always achievable with other orthodontic treatment options. Most patients report that within 24 hours, they get accustomed to the aligners and that the aligners do not affect their daily lives or draw unwanted attention to their mouths. Speak to us at Clear Braces Direct and find out how Invisalign can benefit you.
Simple teeth-straightening with Invisalign London
Invisalign London is a modern teeth-straightening system that allows you to discreetly straighten crooked teeth and close gaps between them to improve your dental health and the appearance of your smile.
Treatment with Invisalign London involves using a sequence of individually tailored transparent aligners that can be removed from your mouth as required and must be changed every two weeks for the next aligner in the series. Each aligner will be individually manufactured to fit onto your teeth accurately, and as you move on to each aligner in the series, your teeth will move little by little every week until they reach a neatly aligned formation. It is a convenient and comfortable method of improving your smile and allows you to carry on with your daily life without anyone noticing that you are having your teeth straightened.
Quick and convenient
The treatment takes between 6 to 12, and you can undergo the treatment from within the comfort of your own home with very little time spent at the dental clinic. You would only need to visit our clinic when we create the treatment plan and assess your results at the end.
Invisalign is a popular teeth-straightening option amongst dentists and patients alike, and unlike traditional orthodontic treatment, it can be done with little or no discomfort. The aligners are removable; therefore, they will not affect your lifestyle or eating habits. The aligners are easy to clean, and you can brush and floss your teeth effectively whilst straightening your teeth with Invisalign London, which is not always possible with traditional orthodontic braces that must be fixed to your teeth.
