How Invisalign Works

Invisalign treatment is as simple as:

  • Step 1: Dr. Civetti scans your teeth using the digital Itero system.
  • Step 2: Wear trays as directed
  • Step 3: Enjoy your beautiful, new smile!

It all starts with your initial consultation, which is when we will learn more about your unique case and determine if you’re a candidate. If you are, then we will create a custom series of aligners that are designed to gently guide your teeth from where they are now to their properly aligned positions. This unique orthodontic solution relies on you wearing the trays, so it’s crucial that you wear them for 20-22 hours each day!

Who Can Invisalign Help?

Whether you’re struggling with considerable overcrowding or mild gaps between your teeth, don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation with us to discuss Invisalign. After all, the clear aligners can effectively address a wide range of orthodontic issues, including:

Crowded Teeth

Perhaps one of the most common orthodontic issues, overcrowded teeth have the potential to negatively affect the look, health, and function of your smile. Fortunately, we can custom craft a series of aligners so that your teeth are gently pushed into their properly aligned positions instead – sometimes in as little as 12 months!

Gaps Between Teeth

Spaced-out teeth are another common concern that Invisalign can address! After taking detailed impressions of your teeth, a custom treatment plan will be made that’s designed to carefully move your teeth closer and closer together, improving the alignment of your teeth in the process.

Overbite

Although you want your upper teeth to sit in front of your lower teeth, you don’t want there to be a considerable gap. This bite problem (known as an “overbite”) can make it difficult to chew, speak, and smile. Luckily, there’s some good news: Invisalign can fix mild to moderate cases! Sometimes, that requires the help of additional orthodontic accessories, like attachments and rubber bands.

Underbite

An underbite is the opposite problem: your lower teeth sit in front of your upper teeth. Whether you have a mild case or severe case, it’s important that you explore your orthodontic treatment options before you experience the consequences, like TMJ dysfunction. Fortunately, Invisalign might be a solution, allowing you to improve the alignment of your bite and your teeth discreetly.

Crossbite

If you have a crossbite (which is when some of your lower teeth sit in front of your upper teeth and vice versa), you can run into all sorts of issues. A few include difficulty chewing properly, trouble enunciating clearly, and chronic jaw pain. With the help of buttons, rubber bands, and other orthodontic accessories, the clear aligners can address this bite problem too!

Open Bite

When you bite down, do your teeth come together evenly? If they don’t, then you may have an open bite. There are several reasons this bite problem can develop, including persistent thumb sucking as a child and genetics. Whatever the case may be for you, Invisalign may be the answer. The best way to find out is by scheduling a consultation with our Royal Palm Beach dental team.

The Benefits of Invisalign

Invisalign is a system that uses clear, plastic trays instead of metal brackets and wires which makes them incredibly discreet. Plus, there are no adjustment appointments necessary! Instead, you will have occasional checkups with Dr. Civetti. Although they will be short, they’ll play a crucial role in ensuring the process is moving along smoothly. On average, you can expect to achieve your desired results in 12-18 months too!

Factors That Affect the Cost of Invisalign

In order to create your custom treatment plan, we need to learn a bit about your dental history, the orthodontic problems that are currently present, and your aesthetic goals. From there, we can determine:

  • If any preliminary treatments are needed
  • The complexity of your case
  • How many aligners need to be made
  • If rubber bands and other orthodontic accessories should be added to your treatment plan
  • The type of retainer needed

From there, we can provide you with an estimate of the cost of Invisalign and review the financial solutions available to you – whether it’s utilizing your dental insurance or spacing out the cost of your care into manageable chunks with CareCredit.

Invisalign vs. Mail-In Aligners: Which Costs More?

In most cases, mail-in aligners are cheaper. That’s because they skip the initial consultation, rely on DIY impressions, and aren’t supervised by licensed dental professionals. That’s also why they have such a poor satisfaction rate, and previous patients have experienced problems like worsened misalignment. In short, if you want to straighten your teeth safely, then you should choose a professional orthodontic treatment, like Invisalign, even if it requires a higher upfront investment.

Does Dental Insurance Cover Invisalign?

You might be surprised to learn that some dental insurance plans include a once-in-a-lifetime benefit that can be used to cover a portion of the cost of Invisalign. In other words, it’s worth taking a look at your plan to see if you have any available coverage! Although our team at Pearl Palm Beach Dental is out of network, we do file all claims for PPO plans and have years of experience helping our patients maximize their benefits. So, don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you need any help.

Options for Making Invisalign Affordable

Don’t have dental insurance? Don’t worry – that’s not the only financial solution available. We also welcome flexible financing with trusted third-party financiers, like CareCredit. As a result, you don’t have to pay for the entire cost of Invisalign at once. Instead, you can choose one of their payment plans and break down the total price into smaller, manageable monthly chunks.
