So, what are some of the best ways for you to keep Invisalign cost London down? Read on to find out some of our team’s top tips!

Wear the aligners as directed

When it comes to reducing Invisalign cost London, one of the easiest ways to do so is to simply wear the aligners as directed.

How does this keep the cost down? Because it keeps the treatment on schedule and therefore, you will not need to attend check-ups for longer periods or engage in using additional aligners.

If you do not wear the aligners for the periods stated by our team, the treatment may slow down or stop altogether, or your teeth may begin to move back to their previous positions, meaning adjustments will need to be made which can be costly.

So, keep the aligners in!

Keep them safe

When you are sent your aligners by our team they will come with a carry case, in which you will need to place them when they are not in your mouth. This is especially important whilst you are out and about.

We advise you to use it; not doing so can result in the aligners becoming damaged in either your pocket or bag, which can lead to replacements being needed and this, once again, can incur an additional cost.

Maintain good oral hygiene

You may remember a friend of yours who wore a traditional brace needing to undertake trips to the hygienist to keep their teeth and gums healthy.

And while invisible aligners are removable and should not have a direct impact on your dental health, it is still worth maintaining good oral hygiene when wearing them. Aligners can block the flow of saliva, which is essential for keeping your teeth clean and removing debris that can lead to cavities and gum disease.

Aligners can also, if not washed properly, press food against your teeth and gums, which can once again heighten the chances of you developing tooth decay.

So, keep your aligners and your mouth clean!

Attend appointments

This treatment can be undertaken in the comfort of your own home.

However, it is worth noting that throughout the treatment you may need to attend appointments with our team, especially if during the assessment of your weekly selfies, we spot an issue with the realignment process.

To keep costs down and to keep your treatment on track, please attend these appointments! Any issues can be dealt with before they become too extreme and we can offer feedback and tips on how to prevent more issues from occurring in the future.
