And how exactly is that kind of cost justified when\nit comes to clear aligners, which are bits of plastic?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At <strong>Clear Braces Direct<\/strong>, we have been working with Invisalign for over 10 years and know exactly what goes into and is included in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.clearbraces-direct.co.uk\/invisalign-cost.html\">Invisalign cost London<\/a>. We are always happy to offer a payment breakdown to our patients, and during the first consultation, we will be able to give you an accurate assessment of how much your treatment with this aligner is likely to cost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With that in mind, in this article, we discuss\nwhat is included in <strong>Invisalign costs London<\/strong>\nso that you can assess whether it is worth pursuing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The aligner creation<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first stage in having an aligner created is\nundertaking an intraoral scan from our team.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is included in <strong>Invisalign cost\nLondon<\/strong>, as is the 3D printing of the aligners. The cost also\nincludes the digital movement of your teeth using specialised computer\ntechnology, which will help us to ascertain how many stages are needed in the\ntreatment and how many aligners will be required. Even though they are only 3D\nprinted, they are precise and will be able to move your teeth with minimal\nfuss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Assessments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There may be some instances where you will need\nto have an assessment from our team throughout the treatment. This is common if\nyou are experiencing excessive levels of discomfort or if you lose an aligner.\nThese checkups are also included in the cost of the treatment, and any\nadditional fees will be discussed with you when you enter our surgery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Length of wear<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a more severe dental misalignment,\nthe process will take longer. This means more aligners and checkups will be\nrequired, both of which will also increase the cost of the treatment. Although\nthe average treatment time of invisible aligners is 3 to 6 months, if you have\na more complex case, it can take longer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Additional aligners<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned earlier, you will need to visit our\nsurgery in most instances if you have lost an aligner. However, if you reach\nthe end of the treatment and your teeth are not aligned properly as planned,\nyou may need to undertake additional aligners, which will be added to the cost\nof the treatment. These are called refinement aligners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Retainers and follow-ups<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once your teeth are straight, you will need to\nwear a retainer for an indeterminate period; this will be discussed and set\ndown by our team. The retainers will help to hold your teeth in place and will\nbe included in the cost. If there are any follow-up appointments needed to\ndiscuss the realignment process (these may or may not be included), our team\nwill discuss this with you at the time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are an adult who has misaligned teeth, it is likely that at one point or another, you have looked into undertaking orthodontic care.
