Transferring Invisalign patients

Cate Vieregger, DDS answers: Invisalign - If I move out of state, what happens to my Invisalign treatment?

I am thinking of getting Invisalign. At the same time, I might move out of state for work. What if I move during the Invisalign treatment? Has anyone done that?

It is possible to transfer an Invisalign patient although there are some major things to consider.

Will your current Dr. reimburse the new doctor for their time?

If there are additional costs due to mid course corrections who will cover those?

Did the first Dr. inculde retainers at the end of treatment atno additional cost and what style did they include? Traditional Hawley style, Invisalign retainers or bonded retainers?

I would be sure to address this with your Dentist to ensure they are willing to make it work for you and the new Dentist.
