Benefits of Invisalign®

Some notable benefits of choosing Invisalign® over other traditional methods of teeth straightening include:

At your consultation with us, our expert dental team will ensure that Invisalign® clear aligners are a suitable treatment option for you and discuss alternative procedures if they are not. A scan will be taken of your teeth to create your individualized treatment plan. You will be given an approximation of how long your treatment plan will take and what your teeth should look like.

The scanner used for the Invisalign® procedure to create a custom treatment plan is the iTero 3D scanner. This scanner produces detailed and high-resolution interactive images in just minutes. Using this technology, you can have aligners created with a better fit and less chance of the need for redos. There is also no impression taken or the need to make a mold, which means that there is no goop or mess and no gagging. Part of the technology is the Invisalign® Outcome Simulator, which can give you a preview of your new smile before you begin treatment. With the Invisalign® Progress Assessment tool, you’ll be able to check on your progress at every check-up visit.

Once you receive the clear aligners, replacements will be given every few weeks to help gradually move your teeth into the right place. You should have your teeth and aligners checked every six weeks at our dental office to see if adjustments are necessary.

How Long Does Invisalign® Take?

The length of Invisalign® treatment varies depending on the complexity of your case and the specific alignment issues being addressed. On average, most patients complete their treatment in 12 to 18 months, though some minor adjustments can be achieved in as little as 6 months. Factors like the severity of misalignment, adherence to wearing the aligners for the recommended 20 to 22 hours per day, and the treatment goals will influence the overall timeline. During your initial consultation, your dentist will provide a personalized estimate based on your unique needs. Regular progress check-ups every 4 to 6 weeks help ensure that your treatment stays on track, resulting in a beautifully aligned smile.

We believe a beautiful new smile is priceless, but we understand that it needs to fit in your budget! The Invisalign® system costs $5500, but patients may pay a different out-of-pocket cost depending on their individual needs and insurance coverage. At WestLake Dental Care, your Invisalign® treatment includes retention, whitening and all records such as X-rays, scans, pictures, etc. It also includes teeth whitening at our office FOR LIFE!

Is Invisalign® Worth It?

For many patients, Invisalign® is absolutely worth it. The clear aligners offer a discreet, comfortable, and convenient way to achieve a straighter smile without the hassle of traditional braces. While the cost may be higher than some alternatives, the benefits—such as improved oral health, fewer restrictions, and enhanced confidence—make it a valuable investment in your long-term dental and personal wellbeing. Plus, the flexibility and efficiency of Invisalign® often make the treatment experience more enjoyable.
