Frequently Asked Questions
No, we provide options. We want you to have options in your orthodontic treatment, so our doctors offer clear braces, self-ligating braces, and clear aligners – a form of invisible braces.
Every smile is unique, and so is every treatment. On average, most adults complete their Invisalign treatment within 12 to 18 months. But remember, you’ll start seeing changes in your smile in just a matter of weeks!
You’ll typically need to visit your orthodontist every 4 to 6 weeks. These regular check-ups allow your orthodontist to adjust your braces and monitor your progress. We also offer remote care convenience via the Smile Doctors Anywhere app, which also offers convenient appointment scheduling, direct messages with your orthodontist, and more, helping you to keep treatment on track from your phone.
The cost of braces or Invisalign aligners depends on the length of treatment and the type of braces and aligners that you choose. Our doctors and treatment coordinators are happy to come up with a payment plan that meets your budget.
Many orthodontic insurance plans cover Invisalign aligners just as they would regular braces. We’re happy to help you understand and maximize your benefits!
