What Are Invisible Orthodontics?
Invisible orthodontics, sometimes called invisible braces, refer to teeth-straightening and bite-correcting appliances and techniques that are less apparent and visible than traditional braces. As such, invisible orthodontics are often more appealing, especially to adults who might be embarrassed by regular braces.
Frequently Asked Questions About Invisible Orthodontics
We understand that you likely have dozens of questions about invisible orthodontics—we are here to help! Frequently asked questions that we hear about invisible orthodontics include:
- How long does it take for visible orthodontics to correct my teeth? Invisible orthodontics can be just as effective at correcting crooked teeth as regular braces. With that in mind, how long it will take before your treatment is over depends on your specific care and treatment plan—every patient will be different.
- How much do invisible orthodontics cost? Invisible orthodontics can range from $3,000 to up to between $7,000-$10,000 in some cases. Talk to our office about financing options—we understand that this cost can feel prohibitive.
- Can I eat and sleep with my invisible orthodontics? You should talk to your dental professional about caring for your invisible orthodontics. In most cases, you should always remove your invisible orthodontics (if removable) while eating and drinking beverages; you should always sleep with your invisible orthodontics in place.
- Who’s a good candidate for invisible orthodontics? For younger patients, teeth are still growing and moving. As such, it’s best to wait until movement in the mouth is nearly complete before investing in invisible orthodontics. Older teens and adults are usually the best candidates.
- Do invisible orthodontics really work? Yes! Invisible orthodontics are just as effective at correcting crooked teeth as are regular braces. These are a great option!
