Frequently asked questions
Why is Invisalign more expensive than traditional braces?
The custom 3D treatment planning, FDA-cleared aligner manufacturing, and proprietary technology cost more than wires and brackets. Traditional braces are typically $3,000-5,000 in Brooklyn — Invisalign is similar but with the cosmetic and convenience advantages.
Are cheaper online aligner brands as good?
Brands like Smile Direct Club, Byte, Candid bypass in-person dentist oversight and produce variable results. Some patients are happy; others have bite problems, gum recession, or relapse. Worth the savings for very mild cases, risky for moderate or complex ones.
Can I get a refund if I don’t like Invisalign?
Invisalign treatment isn’t reversible per-se — the teeth move from day 1. But if your aligners aren’t producing results, we use refinement aligners (included) until the plan is achieved. Failed cases requiring abandonment are very rare.
How long are payments spread out?
Most patients pay over the duration of treatment (10-18 months) using CareCredit 0% APR or in-house plans. We can structure based on your budget.
