In most cases, Invisalign treatment iscomparable to the cost of traditional braces. However, as with other medicaltreatments, only your orthodontist can determine the cost, based on yourspecific needs. Other factors may include your treatment goals, the difficultyof your case, how long you are in treatment, and where you live.
Depending on your individual goals, you might use limited orthodontics (a few hundred dollars), bonding ($500-$1000), porcelain veneers ($2000-$10,000) or Invisalign ($5000-$7000) to close the gap.
