Invisalign is an orthodontic option designed to address dental concerns like crooked, misaligned, and overcrowding teeth. Invisalign treatment works through a custom set of clear aligners that fit snugly over the teeth. Treatment time lasts anywhere from nine to fifteen months on average, with many patients achieving their desired results within a year. However, the timeline largely depends on the complexity of each case. More complicated cases may require 24-30 months or more for the desired results to be achieved. Depending on the individual’s circumstances, some people can even finish sooner than expected due to cooperation with assigned tasks such as wearing aligners for 22 hours per day and visiting their dentist as instructed.
Invisalign clear aligner is a great choice for many kinds of mild to moderate orthodontic corrections. It is a discreet, comfortable and easy-to-use system that can treat multiple issues. Among its most common uses are the correction of widely spaced teeth, crowding of teeth, overbite or underbite and even some minor cases of misalignment due to incorrect jaw development. With Invisalign, new aligners are constantly introduced, meaning the treatment can be adapted and tailored as needed to create progressive results. For those who prefer not to have traditional metal braces and bands on their teeth, Invisalign may offer an ideal alternative.
The good news is that some insurance plans do cover Invisalign, and many dental offices can assist in finding out if a particular plan will offer coverage or not. However, not all policies are alike and they often have different coverage limits and requirements. Some will cover partial costs while others could cover the full bill, depending on a patient's individual situation - so it's best to contact your insurance provider in order to understand what type of coverage Invisalign may be eligible for. In any case, talking with our team can help provide more detailed information about whether Invisalign is right for you and how much your insurance may be able to cover. Ultimately, understanding your insurance policy can help you decide which treatment option is best for you and your wallet.
