How much did you spend on Invisalign?

Since there seems to be a lot of interest in this subject (who can blame the consumer to want the best value), I will make a few comments. First of all, you are not buying a consumer product like a TV or an automobile that everyone can compare prices very easily. What you really are buying is the doctors expertise as well as the expertise of Align Technology (the makers of Invisalign). The use of Invisalign, as well as any other treatment, has a learning curve. Treatment I did on my first 100 cases was not up to the standards of my next several hundred cases. I got much better and Invisalign itself got much better. You may not know this, but the orthodontist/dentist is the one who directs Align Technology on what to do. Hopefully the dentist/orthodontist has the expertise to direct the treatment that will get the best result possible. In our office, we many times will expand the upper jaw (if too narrow), before Invisalign is used. Cost is very relative, but value is another story. Value and quality is what lives on well after the thrill of the bargain wears off. Always remember, an investment in your smile can pay dividends all your life. Make the best choice possible. Cost should not be your biggest factor, but quality of the experience and result should be first. As long as the doctors fee is reasonable, then shop for quality. Nuf said. Good luck to all.

I just spent $5400 in the midwestern US, with a dentist (not orthodontist). It includes everything. My plan involves 15 sets of aligners (top and bottom) with attachments and IPR. If refinement is needed, that will be included as well.

I got braces last april it cost 6000 expensive

The people commenting that they have cheap treatment don't see orthodontists they see dentists. which isn't advised in the first place. I would never trust my orthodontia treatment to a dentist who has zero orthodontia training just to save money. The average is $3500-$5000. That is normal and includes all office visits *with an orthodontist) and retainers.

I paid $2,700 for the whole treatment. This was a deal from the dentist I went to, through Living Social. It was like a coupon I bought, paid for it all at once. Does not include the retainers after the treatment though.

Does invisalign charge a separate fee along with the orthodontics ? I was quoted a fee of 1600.00 for invisalign and 5200.00 by the orthodontics .

I paid $3K for mine. This is after the insurance and a promotional deal

My insurance paid $1000, I put down $1500 and making payments each month to my Dr. another $1500, so $4000 total and that includes everything start to finish.
