No, it did not cost me $2400.00 out of pocket. I received a $200.00 discount from my Doctor (he was offering the discount as a promotion that month). My insurance paid for 50% of the cost. So, my out of pocket cost was $1100.00 My treatment lasted 5 months (called an 'express' case). It corrected crowding on my bottom teeth and rotated one of my top teeth and also corrected very mild crowding on top. My problems were minor compared to many - which I think is what Invisalign is really best suited for - minor issues. I am currently wearing retainers every night and have been doing so for the last 2 months. My teeth have not shifted back - they look just like they did the last day of my treatment. I need to wear my retainer every night for another month, then can wear once a week or so. Hope this helps!
