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.
