Ways to ensure that the Invisalign cost stays low during treatment

So, you attended a consultation with our team to discuss having invisible aligners and have left somewhat surprised at how much this treatment may cost. Rest assured, you’re not alone! And our team will likely have discussed financing options with you during this appointment.

But you may also have some questions about how you can help to keep that cost as it is. After all, many things can occur with dental realignments, and as our team will likely have explained, this can be added to the final bill, which is something most people will want to avoid.

At Clear Braces Direct, we have been working with many patients over the last 10 years to get their teeth straightened and will always aim to help keep Invisalign cost London as low as possible. So, there will be no surprise add-ons at the end of the treatment, and you can get the straighter smile that you want for the quoted price.

But how can you influence the outcome at home to keep Invisalign cost London down? Read on for some tips.

Stay in touch

The first way that you can keep Invisalign cost London low is to stay in regular communication with our team. Once the aligner is in your mouth, you will need to send our team weekly selfies, showing your smile whilst wearing the aligner and without the aligner. This will allow us to assess whether the treatment is progressing as planned, and if it isn’t, we will send you instructions via the app or call you into the surgery. This will help keep the treatment on schedule and the costs lower.

Keep them clean!

It should come as no surprise that when wearing invisible aligners, you are at a higher risk of developing tooth decay and gum disease. This is because the aligners themselves can harbour bacteria, which may then be pressed against your teeth and gums, heightening the chances of these issues occurring. So another way you can help keep the overall cost low is to keep your aligners clean by rinsing them under cold water twice a day or soaking them in an appropriate cleaning solution.

Wear them as instructed

One thing that can slow down the treatment with invisible aligners is the patient taking their aligners out and leaving them out for longer than they should, which can cause the teeth to stop moving or begin to revert. So always aim to wear the aligners as instructed by our team to keep the treatment on schedule and reduce the costs.

Don’t break them!

When you receive the aligners, they should come with a carry case. Always keep them in there if they are not in your mouth, as this will prevent them from breaking. As you can imagine, if an invisible aligner becomes damaged, you will need to order a replacement, which can push the cost of treatment up.

Order replacements if needed

Of course, if the damage is done and you have already broken your aligner, you will need to get a replacement, and doing so as soon as possible will save you money. So contact our team if one of your aligners is missing or broken.
