Invisalign attachments help move the teeth where you want them
Attachments are tooth colored or translucent composite shapes that are bonded to the teeth to let the aligners deliver the proper forces for movement. Are you actually getting Invisalign if the cost is 2/3 less without attachments? The savings may not be worth it to you if your results are compromised in the end. Besides getting experienced opinions from realself, be sure you have an experienced doctor providing the actual treatment.

Atatchments needed?
Cases are much more predictable with attatchments. Your case should not cost more with attatchments unless these are extra travel issues. If you have your impressions and pictures taken they can be submitted to Invisalign for a 3D clincheck proposal that can be modified online to show the case with attatchments and without attatchments. They will note poblems and times for treatment that will result and this can help you with your decision. Good luck!
