Difference Between Invisalign and Similar Aligners?

Depending on the complexity of your case, there is a myriad of options out there for you besides the "Big 2" you mentioned. I urge you to also consider: SmileCareClub, MTM...etcThese options may also be at a significant cost reduction to your wallet.As always, start with your General Dentist to obtain a full check-up and periodontal exam and make sure your bite, gums and teeth are healthy for orthodontic treatment.RealSelf has many postings from patients of all aligner systems and can give doctor referrals.Best of luck with your new smile!

Both achieve the same results in the end.  I have done both over 20 years.  I use ClearCorrect exclusively now because the fee is lower and I can pass the savings on to the patient.  Great results.

There seems to be some misapprehension among doctors about the difference between Invisalign, ClearCorrect, and other aligners, and they are passing this misapprehension on to patients.I am a provider of both Invisalign and ClearCorrect. They are both the same technology - 3-dimensionally printed sequence of aligners that straighten your teeth when changed every 2-3 weeks. The differences lie in the marketing each company does, the lab fees they charge, and customer support they provide doctors. Depending on how each doctor has experienced these factors, you will receive a certain biased opinion from them regarding Invisalign or ClearCorrect. In reality, it's people arguing the difference between a Chevrolet and a Ford. That being said, what really determines the success of treatment is how competent the doctor is in achieving your desired outcome, not what brand the plastic is. If you don't know hot to drive, it really doesn't matter whether your car is a Chevy or a Ford. You should ask how the doctor plans to achieve your desired outcome.
