Determining if Clear Aligners are the Best Option for You

Traditional metal braces have long been the standard solution for orthodontic treatment, but clear aligners have gained popularity as a discreet and convenient alternative. But how do you know if clear aligners are the right choice for you?

Step 1: Consult with your Smile Brite Orthodontist

The first step in deciding if clear aligners are suitable for you is to schedule a consultation with our orthodontist, Dr. Kapadi. During this appointment, Dr. Kapadi will conduct a thorough examination of your teeth, take X-rays, and discuss your concerns. He will assess the severity of the misalignment and determine if clear aligners are a feasible treatment option. This initial consultation will provide valuable insight into what to expect from the treatment and help you make an informed decision.

Step 2: Assess Commitment and Responsibility

Clear aligner treatment requires a certain level of commitment and responsibility from the wearer. Unlike traditional braces, clear aligners are removable, which allows you to eat your favorite foods without restrictions. However, this also means you need to practice discipline and wear the aligners for the recommended 20-22 hours per day.

Step 3: Evaluate Lifestyle and Activities

Another factor when considering if clear aligners are right for you is your lifestyle and activities. Clear aligners should be removed when playing contact sports or participating in activities that could cause injury to the mouth.

Step 4: Consider Oral Hygiene Habits

Maintaining good oral hygiene is vital throughout any orthodontic treatment. With traditional braces, brushing and flossing can be challenging due to the wires and brackets. Clear aligners offer a distinct advantage in this aspect since the aligners are removable, allowing for regular brushing and flossing. If you place high importance on oral hygiene or have had previous dental issues, clear aligners may be a better fit for your needs.

How Much Do Clear Aligners Cost?

Clear aligner costs vary depending on several factors including the complexity of your case, the length of treatment, and your insurance coverage. On average clear aligner treatment ranges from $3,000–$8,000. The average cost for a teenager is $3,000, while a typical adult would spend $5,700 for a “full” treatment.

Most dental insurance plans do partially cover orthodontic treatment. Check with your insurance provider or contact Smile Brite Orthodontics to find out if clear aligners would be covered by your insurance.
