Invisalign
Invisalign Auckland has gained popularity due to its invisible appearance.
They are comfortable to wear and are made of custom trays that fit perfectly on your mouth. This will reduce the possibility of irritation and discomfort commonly associated with braces. Also, treatment results are more predictable compared to traditional braces. However, Invisalign cost varies depending on the case.
How Much Does Invisalign Cost NZ?
Invisalign costs in our Auckland Family Dental practices will be determined upon initial consultation. This will enable us to thoroughly check and diagnose your condition before we proceed with the pricing. Each patient can wear from 10-40 aligners. The treatment time can last from 10 to 14months on average.
Factors that Determine Invisalign Cost
- Complexity of the Case – for those with overcrowding, incorrect bite, or malalignment of teeth, treatment time may belonger which requires more sets of aligners to correct the occlusion. Each set of aligners adds to the overall cost of the treatment.
- Age of the Patient – younger patients usually have shorter treatment period because their teeth are easily repositioned compared to older patients. Young patients experience faster results because their teeth are still starting to grow and thus will move easier and faster.
- Length of treatment – Invisalign Auckland costs greatly rely on the length of treatment because longer treatment time means more custom trays for the patient. This will then increase the Invisalign cost.
- Patient Compliance – for Invisalign treatment to be effective, it is important to wear the aligners diligently and on time. Failure to comply with the prescribed schedule can lead to treatment delays. This will then require additional sets of aligners, which will then increase the cost.
- Dental Insurance – some dental plans can cover the treatment cost for Invisalign, but some do not.
- Clinic Facilities – modern and well-equipped clinics may charge more for the treatment because of the enhanced comfort and convenience during the procedure.
