How much does Invisalign cost?

The national average cost for Invisalign is over $5,000. Here at Schaumburg Dentistry the cost ranges from $2,999 for simple cases, to $3,599 for more complex cases. Consults are recommended to determine which level of difficulty your case would be. The cost of treatment includes all treatment start to finish, 1 free set of retainers, and free whitening.

How long does Invisalign take?

Depending on the complexity of the case, Invisalign can typically range from 4 months to 16 months, with the average case lasting between 6-8 months.

Can Invisalign fix my overbite?

Yes, Invisalign can correct your overbite, open bite, overjet, underbite, as well as crowding, spacing, rotated teeth, and improperly angled teeth. Take a look at our Before and After page to see some of our results!

Does Invisalign Hurt?

The soreness during Invisalign typically peaks the first 2-3 days after starting treatment and improves drastically from there. The pain with Invisalign compared to traditional braces is much less, and only about half our patients will require 1-2 over the counter pain tablets throughout the course of their treatment.

Am I a candidate for Invisalign?

Most patients with tooth alignment issues (spacing, crowding, malocclusion, etc.) are a candidate for Invisalign. If you’re unsure whether you’d be a candidate for Invisalign or not, call our office for a free consultation! (847) 985-8100

How does Invisalign work?

Your dentist develops a treatment plan that coordinates the exact movements of your teeth to finish in an ideal position. Clear plastic trays are then 3D printed and designed to apply specific forces to get the teeth moving as planned. Each tray shifts your teeth closer and closer to the end result, with new trays being inserted every 10 days.

Can a general dentist do Invisalign?

General dentists are able to treat patients with Invisalign, and in fact, there are many benefits to this. Having Invisalign completed in the same office where you go for all your dental needs makes it easier and more convenient for the dentist to track your progress as you come in for cleanings or any other dental work that may be needed. Additionally, in complex cases where we need to create room for crowns or veneers, the doctor can place the teeth exactly where he needs them to be, thus allowing your case to have a more predictable outcome.

Is Invisalign better than braces?

Both options have their strengths. While traditional metal braces are sometimes necessary for more complex cases in growing teenagers, the benefit to Invisalign is that teeth can be planned and placed exactly where the doctor wants them to be utilizing digital technology. Invisalign has the added advantage of improved esthetics with clear trays instead of metal brackets and can have less of an impact on your daily routine. Patients are also able to keep their teeth cleaner without brackets and wires which allow food to get trapped.

Does Invisalign work with crowns, bridges, implants, or veneers?

Yes! This is one of the advantages to using Invisalign. The plastic can engage and move teeth without having to bond or attach anything to your previous dental work, unlike traditional braces where brackets have to be bonded to those teeth. In patients with implants or bridges, a special plan can be customized for you so that there are no excessive forces on those teeth.

How long do Invisalign trays need to be worn for?

In order to be effective, the trays need to be worn for 20-22 hours a day. The trays should be worn while you are sleeping and throughout the day, however the only time the trays are to be taken out is to brush your teeth and to eat. Once you are done eating or brushing, the trays should be put back in.e Content

what can I eat during my Invisalign treatment?

Since the Invisalign trays are taken out while eating, there usually aren’t any restrictions on what you can eat! Unlike traditional braces, you don’t have to worry about hard foods popping off metal brackets or wires poking you.

Can I drink coffee or tea with my Invisalign trays in?

Yes you can drink coffee or tea while your Invisalign trays are in. In order to reduce stain buildup, we recommend drinking through a straw and brushing (or rinsing) your trays under water once you are done. We also recommend allowing your beverage to cool down slightly to prevent any heat damage to the plastic trays

How often do I need to brush with Invisalign?

You should continue to brush your teeth and trays at least twice a day, preferably right after your meal. Brushing three times a day isn’t necessary, but it may help prevent some stain buildup on the trays.

Will my teeth stay straight after Invisalign?

once you invisalign treatment is complete, your doctor will scan your teeth and order a set of custom retainers. The retainers are to be worn every night in order to prevent the teeth from shifting back. These retainers are made of a clear plastic material similar to that of the Invisalign trays and work great to help prevent any tooth wear from nighttime clenching or grinding.

How long do the retainers last for?

The average lifespan of the retainers is about 3-5 years, but a lot depends on the patient. If the patient grinds their teeth while sleeping, the trays may wear down quicker. But for patients who have mild to no grinding, their trays can last well over 5 years.
