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.
Digital scans are also more accurate than physical impressions, which matters once aligners are being custom-milled.
Before ordering aligners, you'll see a projected simulation of how your teeth are expected to move, stage by stage.
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.
Here's the range of Invisalign Clear Aligners our Bryn Athyn team handles most, described the way we'd explain it chairside rather than in marketing language.
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.
You'll see your projected tooth movement on-screen, stage by stage, before a single tray is manufactured. 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. Attachments are tooth-colored and barely noticeable in normal conversation.
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. Virtual check-ins are available for patients who can't easily come in as often.
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.
Here's exactly what to expect, start to finish, for Invisalign Clear Aligners at any of our affiliated offices.
Schedule an intraoral scan and eligibility screening, usually within the same week.
See your projected tooth movement on-screen before committing to treatment.
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.”
These are the questions Bryn Athyn patients ask most before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners.
Mild cases can finish in six months; more complex cases may take twelve to eighteen months, based on your simulation.
The scan and screening visit will tell us honestly whether aligners are the right tool for your case.
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.
