Invisalign Cost Estimate for Big Overbite?

I'm a teenager and I don't have teeth gaps, but a pretty big overbite. My family isn't really capable of being able to pay for braces (which are around $6635 and are going higher as we speak) so I need to help out. Can you give me an estimate cost for correcting a 6mm overbite with Invisalign? Is it worth it? How long will the correction take? I have 2 years left until prom/graduation and I don't want metal braces nor do I want messed up teeth either.

Cost of fixing a big overbite with Invisalign

Hi Jess, Invisalign is a tool just as braces are in the application of correcting maloclusions. There are different tools that are best suited for correcting different maloclusions. The more severe the maloclusion and the time put into a case is going to determine the cost. The more severe the maloclusion, the more you want an orthodontist (person that has not only gone to dental school but has also attented a two to three year residency program in the recognized specialty of orthodontics)... more
