Invisalign Cost
Since launching in 1999, Invisalign has become one of the most reliable options for orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is synonymous with comfort and style.
The ultimate deciding factor in determining Invisalign cost in Sherman Oaks is the quality of your treatment. Learn more about how Dougherty Orthodontics delivers the best combination of value and quality.
How Much Does Invisalign Cost?
The cost of Invisalign varies depending on several factors, such as the case’s complexity and the treatment length. On average, the cost of Invisalign can range depending on your needs.
Invisalign is often considered a more expensive option than traditional metal braces because of the technology and materials used in the process. The aligners are custom-made for each patient using 3D computer imaging technology and are made from a clear, specially-formulated plastic that is comfortable to wear.
However, at Dougherty Orthodontics, we don’t think you should have to settle for an option that doesn’t work with your lifestyle. We offer braces and Invisalign for the same flat fee.
Dougherty Orthodontics offers the best value for your treatment in the Sherman Oaks area.
Additional Costs After Your Treatment
There may be additional costs to consider besides the cost of the Invisalign treatment itself. One important cost to keep in mind is the cost of retainers, which are typically required after completing your treatment to maintain the new position of the teeth.
Retainer costs are included in your treatment fee. There are additional costs for replacement retainers if the patient loses or breaks them.
There are three main types of retainers we may recommend:
- Hawley Wire Retainer
- Clear Plastic Retainer
- Permanent Bonded Retainer
We also typically use a combination of a bonded retainer for the lower and a removable retainer for the upper. Using a bonded retainer means there are less opportunities to lose or misplace your retainer.
Other additional costs can include the cost of any necessary tooth extractions or other dental work that may be required before or during the treatment.
During your consultation, we will provide you with a more accurate estimate of the total cost of Invisalign treatment.
Invisalign Treatment Financial Options
We understand that orthodontic treatment can be a significant financial investment. That’s why we strive to make it as comfortable as possible for our patients to receive the best care.
We offer various financing options to help make treatment affordable. Patients can choose from monthly payment plans with no interest or finance charges. We also accept all major credit cards, flexible spending, and Care Credit for your convenience. Additionally, we offer automatic payments to make the process even more seamless.
When it comes to insurance, our office works with most PPO plans and will file the necessary claims on your behalf. We accept insurance payments as a courtesy to our patients. Please keep in mind that most insurance policies have a lifetime orthodontic benefit that is separate from regular dental coverage. However, some carriers have waiting periods, alternate benefits, age limitations, or other stipulations that may limit your benefits. Your insurance carrier or Human Resources Department will be able to offer more comprehensive information about your plan.
If you have any financial questions, please do not hesitate to contact us by calling our office or emailing [email protected]. We will be more than happy to assist you.
