Questions About Invisalign Extra Costs?

There shouldn't be any extra costs for Invsalign. The doctor can quote you for the treatment, and retaining the teeth in their position when you are completed. Those may be 2 separate quotes or not. If the doctor is going to charge you for mid course corrections, or finishing/final tweeks to your teeth, they should tell you that.

Fillings, crowns, should all be quoted separately.

Each office is different regarding costs of treatment. Some quote a low fee to get you into treatment then charge more at the end of treatment for the retainers. Make sure you get all the up front fees quoted to you during the consult. If invisalign is done right then you will not need regular braces after. There are finance companies that you can prequalify for like CareCredit that can get you treatment for around $200 a month...

Dear patient,

When the dental office gives you a total for your Invisalign treatment that includes everything. The prices vary around $5000, you are right. That sum includes EVERYTHING, as I said, the aligners, the lab fee, the dentist fee. Everything. In any case it is better to ask the dental office before the treatment.

Now, there are ways to deal with that $5000.

One way is to apply and be accepted for Care Credit which pays the total $ 5000 and you repay by installments or another way, is to make a down payment for let's say $2000 - $2500 up front at the beginning of treatment and then pay the rest in installments (depending on the dental office).

Best of luck,
Dr. Barba

Each office will decide what is included with their fee, as well as financing options, total fee and just about everything else.  It would be best to interview a few offices to see what is offered and decide from there.

Hi! Invisalign prices vary by region, length of treatment time, and doctor office.  When you are quoted a price, ask what that includes as some offices do have hidden fees.  Does that include the records as well as invisalign treatment? Does the fee include invisalign refinements if needed? Does the fee include retainers? Does the fee include braces if needed at the end?

In my office, I tell all my patients up front what the cost includes, and it is all inclusive. Regarding payment options, I can only speak for my office, where we do have different payment options including a no interest monthly payment plans.
