Question: My teeth aren't that bad, how much would invisalign be for me?? how much was it for you?
i'm a teenager, my teeth aren't really that bad but i do need then to be alittle more straight. i don't want braces. my insurance will pay half but my parents said its more expensive than braces i can't get them. how much did you pay for invisalign?? they say on the website that invisalign can go 3500-8000 how much do you think it would be for my teeth??
i don't have a gap, no over crowding, just my corner teeth on the top could be straighter and my bottom could be alittle straighter too:) but i don't want to wear braces for 2 yrs for something thats not that bad!!

Answers:

Honestly it is really hard not to tell without seeing a picture and comparing it to my teeth (as I'm not a dentist so I don't really have any other knowledge to go by). The range on the website is correct, I have found it is more so from $4000-$6000, mine being $5500. I don't imagine you would need to wear it longer than a year so I'm assuming you would be around the $5000 area but it really depends on the amount of trays you get and how much your denstist or ortho charges (as I went to 2 different places, one had a solid rate and one had it with the price depending on the length of the treatment). Also you can have a payment program to make it easier. For me, I paid $2000 beforeI got it and every 6 weeks I pay $300.

Just a heads up, some dentists dont't like giving Invisalign to teens because they have to be very mature with it. Honestly, if I was still a teen, I would have just gone with ceramic braces because Invisalign is a lot of work. You must wear it for 20-22 hours a day, only taking it out to eat and drink, then go brush and floss and pop them back in. That means you will need to wear it during dates, and during school. You also will need to brush at school so I hope you would be OK with that. There are also attachments that will be glued to your teeth so it will not be completely invisalbe. It also doesn't matter how long it is for, my bottom which was finished after 6 months, had 4 attachments and my top which is taking a year and a half only has 3.
