INVISALIGN FAQ

Dr. Snider is a Certified Provider of Invisalign orthodontic therapy.  Only a certified provider can evaluate your smile to determine if Invisalign is right for you.

WHAT IS IT?

Invisalign treatment uses a series of virtually invisible, removable, and comfortable aligners that allow you to smile more during treatment as well as after. Invisalign clear aligners are made with 3D computer imaging technology and have been proven effective.  

HOW DOES IT WORK?

You wear each aligner usually for one week, removing them only to eat, drink, brush, and floss. As you replace each aligner with the next in the series, your teeth will move — little by little, week by week — until they have straightened to their final positions.

WHY WOULD I WANT IT?

Not only are the aligners virtually invisible, they are removable, so you can eat and drink what you want while in treatment. Plus, brushing and flossing are no problem. They are also more comfortable than traditional braces, with no metal or wires, which also usually means you spend less time in your doctor's office getting adjustments.

DOES IT COST MORE?

Invisalign typically costs the same price as traditional braces, and in many cases can drastically cut treatment time.

DOES INSURANCE COVER IT?

Invisalign is typically covered by insurance just as traditional orthodontics is covered.
