Understanding the Different Invisalign Packages
Every dental practice has its own approach to treatments and packages. In Essex, Invisalign braces are becoming increasingly popular among clients of all ages and from all walks of life, owing to both the quality of the results experienced and the diversity in available packages.
Of course, there are some aspects of Invisalign treatment that never change. As a product and solution, Invisalign leans on the use of retainers which are designed and manufactured to fit your mouth and the position of your teeth. These retainers or Invisalign braces are made from a clear plastic which minimises visibility, without impacting the quality of the end result.
With that in mind then, what do the different packages include and how do they differ?
Express Treatment
The Invisalign Express treatment is not only the most efficient course of treatment but also the most affordable.
Of course, the first question that clients have is whether a more efficient course of treatment will exhibit the same results. This is why full transparency is so important when discussing the different packages of treatment available.
The more efficient Express treatment package is suitable for those who need to fix milder malalignment symptoms, where the teeth could do with a little support and straightening but where the issues are not too severe. This package also excludes the virtual care support available to patients on the more extensive packages.
Lite Treatment
The middleman when it comes to Invisalign treatment, the Lite package includes the virtual care as part of the process and is a longer-lasting treatment plan of up to 28 weeks (in comparison with the 14-week Express package).
The Lite package is typically the most popular with those seeking the aesthetic benefits of Invisalign to perfect and finetune their smile. It offers all the support, the pre-treatment mapping, the retainers you will need throughout the process, and of course the whitening treatment to really enhance your smile.
Comprehensive Package
The most expensive Invisalign package is the comprehensive treatment plan, which tends to cover up to 10 months and beyond and includes all the pre-treatment evaluation and consultation as well as post-treatment follow-up and aftercare.
This package tends to be the one we recommend to those with severe malalignment issues – whether it be an overbite, an overcrowded jawline, or something else. Because this package includes the mapping, whitening, and aftercare, as well as the retainers and the full extent of treatment, it’s by far the most transformational.
Wondering where you fit?
That’s what the consultation with your dentist is for. When you reach out to your local dental practice to discuss Invisalign, make sure to ask for their advice and recommendations on which treatment package to go for. Identify the differences, ask which one they think you need to maximise the results and impact, and take the time to work out what’s best for you.
