Whether it's minor crowding or a more involved bite correction, our Invisalign Clear Aligners process starts with a scan, not a mold, and a simulation you actually get to review.
These are the four things patients actually ask about before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners, not a generic checklist we copied from another service page.
An intraoral scanner captures your bite in minutes, replacing the old alginate tray most patients dread.
We review the simulation together and adjust the plan before any trays are manufactured.
Small tooth-colored attachments and any interproximal reduction are mapped out from the start, not decided ad hoc.
No per-visit surprise fees — refinement trays are typically included in the original quote.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
Not every case is a good fit for clear aligners — we'll tell you honestly if traditional braces would serve you better. Mild to moderate crowding and spacing are usually excellent aligner candidates.
We walk through the simulation together and make adjustments before finalizing the treatment plan. Ask questions here — this is the easiest point to change course if something doesn't look right.
Both are planned from the simulation, not decided spontaneously mid-treatment. IPR is done in tiny increments, well within enamel safety limits.
Each tray is worn roughly one to two weeks before moving to the next, typically 20 to 22 hours a day. Compliance with wear time is the single biggest factor in staying on schedule.
Periodic in-office or virtual check-ins confirm teeth are tracking with the simulation. Most patients need a check-in every six to eight weeks.
Once finished, a custom retainer keeps teeth from drifting back — this step isn't optional. Refinement trays are typically included in the original treatment quote.
No mystery about what happens between calling us and walking out with the problem addressed.
Schedule an intraoral scan and eligibility screening, usually within the same week.
We answer questions and adjust the plan together at this stage.
You'll get one flat-rate price covering the full course of trays before ordering begins.
Regular check-ins confirm your teeth are tracking with the simulation until refinement and retention.
These are unedited, from patients who've actually been through Invisalign Clear Aligners treatment with us in the past year.
“Seeing the simulation before committing made the decision so much easier. I knew roughly what to expect the whole way through.”
“No goop trays for the impression, just a quick scan. Should have looked into this years ago.”
“The refinement trays were already included in my quote, so there was no surprise bill at the end of treatment.”
“My teeth actually tracked ahead of the simulation timeline, and they caught it and adjusted my check-in schedule accordingly.”
“Attachments were barely noticeable, and the whole process felt a lot less intimidating than traditional braces would have.”
Straight answers to what people actually want to know before committing to Invisalign Clear Aligners.
Mild cases can finish in six months; more complex cases may take twelve to eighteen months, based on your simulation.
Mild to moderate crowding and spacing are typically excellent candidates; more complex bites may need a longer plan or traditional braces.
Some cases need small tooth-colored attachments for extra grip; your ClinCheck simulation will show exactly which teeth need them.
Most treatment plans require 20 to 22 hours daily, removed only for eating and cleaning.
Refinement trays exist specifically to correct minor tracking differences at the end of treatment.
The full course, including refinement trays, is typically quoted as one flat-rate price before you start.
We can usually confirm same-week availability for Invisalign Clear Aligners before you even finish describing your situation.
We coordinate Invisalign Clear Aligners treatment for Sheridan patients from the first scan through final retainer fitting. Virtual check-ins are available for patients outside our immediate area who still want to be treated here.
