How Long Does It Take the Invisalign Aligners to Arrive?

I am on week number 7 and there's no sign of them and haven't heard anything from my dentist. Curious why that is, the day the layout of how my teeth would look was the day I paid which was 7 weeks ago. I'm concerned because I have paid for something I have yet to see.

Depends on a number of factors but usually 4-8 weeks.

I'm going to cross post my answer... The number of trays fabricated has very little to do with the time taken to ship... Most of the time, Align Tech is waiting for instructions from the doctor... Impressions are shipped via UPS with 2-3 day shipping to California where the impressions are processed. Photos and radiographs emailed to Align Technology may take a few days to be matched to the delivered impressions. Your models are then turned into a simulation in Costa Rica. It takes a few days more

Invisalign aligner fabrication CAN be frustrating

Align technologies does try to keep the wait to around 4 weeks, but sometimes the wait is much longer. If the case is complicated, the number of aligners to create can be large, which would add to the wait time. You should call the dental office and ask. They might have an idea what the status is and what kind of wait is left.
