New Year, New Smile!

Published on December 28th, 2016

Looking for a New Year’s Resolution for 2017? Why not get a new smile this New Year? Make your New Year’s Resolution to improve the look & function of your teeth with Invisalign! Invisalign clear aligner trays are one of the best ways to transform your smile. If you have crowded teeth, teeth with wide spaces between them, an overbite, or an underbite, Invisalign might just be the answer to your problems. Below are some of the FAQs about Invisalign treatment.

How Does Invisalign Work?

The Invisalign system straightens your smile through a series of clear plastic aligner trays that fit over your teeth. As time goes on and your teeth shift, you graduate to aligner trays that are closer in shape to the end result. Gradually, these aligners move your teeth into the position you desire.

What Are The Benefits?

Invisalign has many benefits including the fact that the aligners are clear, meaning they are virtually unnoticeable to others. This is perhaps the biggest benefit people find with Invisalign. The other great thing about Invisalign is the fact that the trays are removable. You do not have to alter your eating or oral care habits like you would with traditional braces. Simply remove the aligner trays when it is time to eat or brush, and put them back in after you’re done.

Does Insurance Cover Invisalign?

Insurance plans vary and the amount covered by insurance depends on the plan. However, often times dental insurance plans will cover Invisalign treatment in the same way they would cover other orthodontic treatments—usually up to a certain amount. In order to find out whether your insurance covers Invisalign, you’ll want to discuss it with your provider.
