Anyone get invisalign?

The lab fee for Invisalign is about $1800

I charge about $5000 for Invisalign and $3500 for traditional Braces.

Often the braces work faster and better.

Go get at least three opinions and go to an orthodontist, not a general dentist who took a weekend course in Invisalign and experiments on the public while sending his kids to a real orthodontist.

The downside to invisalign is the positive. You can take it out. If you aren't disciplined, get regular braces. I had regular braces, wife got invisalign. Took her longer because she didn't wear it as often as she should have.

I'm the rugged as fuck type, until the tux or sport coat go on

Yes, it helped the SMV

Braces, now retainers and they are a motherfucker Make sure the ortho puts in permanent retainers behind the teeth

Numerous studies show that people with straight teeth marry more desirable partners and make more money in a lifetime. Do it!

My teeth are healthy looking and white before braces were just a mess. I got braces so that I would keep my teeth longer but did notice a boost in confidence and a positive reaction from women. My smile still isn’t perfect but it’s my most often complimented feature.

Do it. Bad teeth scream low class.

I got Invisalign in my 20's for my upper teeth, best thing I ever did, the gap in my front teeth was getting wonkier over the years... I also had to get a veneer, as I'd chipped one of my front teeth playing rugby and mountain biking like I was invincible when I was young.

They didn't perfectly correct them, but in photos and from a meters distance they look perfect, and I had compliments from women on my smile... for years after.

Massive confidence boost, in fact its the difference between night and day.

It increases all avenues of your life, career, income, fun, friends, women, business.

$5000 is nothing compared to the benefits you get from society treating you 10 times better than before.

Improving your smile can pay great dividends in SMV. Go to an orthodontist (not a general dentist), you wouldn't go to your regular MD for a heart procedure would you? Understand that Invisilign can only do so much, regular braces are for more involved situations and may be faster. Don't do it if you have gum disease or high rate of getting cavities. There are other "brands" of this type of treatment that could work also but what you are really getting with treatment is the expertise of the doctor. Go with someone you trust. Other than that, have at it- good luck.

I switched my insurance last year to a provider that covers more orthodontic stuff specifically so I could do Invisalign. One year waiting period is almost up. The long game. Always be improving

Yes, the smile helps. I would advise to go to the BEST, highest-quality orthodontist in your region. It's as much a skill and trade as it is technology.

Just go the traditional metal route.

I did Damon Braces, and my Ortho was highly skilled. The output was great. The process sucks.

Great info! As soon as my divorce wraps up I'm sinking $5k into this!
