The first thing that you should do is talk to your dentist!. Your dentist can help you find an orthodontist!. If you do not have an dentist I would search for several orthodontist in your area and see if you can come in for a consultation as soon as possible!. You want to have as much time as possible for your treatment!. Try to get several consultations so you can see how much each orthodontist will charge you and the length of your treatment!. Hopefully you have dental insurance!. Most dental practitioners have payment plans available some being: CareCredit or Capital One Healthcare Finance!.
The Invisalign Express is an accelerated form of Invisalign!. It is exposed to use the same type of clear retainers, but, the maximum amount of aligners that a patient will receive is 10!. Since the maximum amount of retainers is 10 for Invisalign Express your treatment will be faster unlike the regular Invisalign program that can have as many as 20-30 aligners!. The Invisalign express cost less than the regular Invisalign due to the lesser amount of aligners and the shorter time frame and provides a quicker treatment time than the original Invisalign!.
I am assuming that Invisalign created this new program as a way to entice people with mild occlusion problems to try Invisalign since the regular Invisalign program can be expensive and a turn off to some people!.
The Invisalign Express system is only for individuals with mild orthodontic cases!. Only an orthodontist can tell you if you qualify for this procedure!. I would also ask the orthodontist how long the treatment time and cost would be for regular (metal) braces!. The regular braces may cost less and have the same treatment time as the Invisalign Express!.
I would go see an orthodontist as soon as possible so that you will have enough time for treatment!. Just remember that you will still have to wear a retainer after your braces!. A retainer should be worn at all times (except eating)!. Wearing your retainer is the only way to prevent your teeth from moving back to their original places!.
Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
