At Smiles of Bulverde, we make the Invisalign journey easy and stress-free. From your first visit to your last aligner, we’ll guide you every step of the way. We use the latest technology to design a plan that fits your smile and your lifestyle.
Clear aligners are ubiquitous for their cosmetic benefits. Placing a clear aligner over your teeth will all but cause it to vanish, as it blends in with your teeth. The aligners are transparent so you can see right through them, making the aligners unnoticeable unless you’re looking for them.
Invisalign aligners are removable, you can take them out before meals and brush and floss your teeth like normal. This helps prevent bacteria from getting trapped and reduces the risk of cavities and staining. Patients who choose Invisalign in San Antonio enjoy a cleaner, healthier smile throughout their treatment.
Because Invisalign doesn’t need to be adjusted as braces do, you don’t need to attend frequent appointments. You can also enjoy the freedom of eating a restriction-free diet and taking your aligners out any time you need to.
One of our dentist in San Antonio will examine your teeth to assess the severity of your misalignment. This will help us determine if Invisalign is right for you and if you will require attachments. Attachments are buttons made of composite resin that are bonded to the teeth and anchor your aligners to help them do their job.
We will take digital x-rays and impressions of your teeth and send them to the Invisalign lab.
Using your scans and impressions, we can create a 3D model of your teeth on our computer software to digitally plan your treatment. This allows us to plan your tooth movements and show you the comparison of your original alignment and what it will look like at the end.
Your aligners are fabricated in an outside dental lab after approving your treatment plan. It will take a few weeks to create your aligners but once we receive them, you can come back to pick them up.
You will need to wear your aligners every day for at least 22 hours. They will be switched every 2 weeks and you will need to attend regular checkups every 6 weeks. During these checkups, we will provide you with additional aligners.
Once you’ve completed your treatment, we will create a retainer based on new impressions of your final alignment. You will need to wear this to maintain your new alignment.
Many dental insurance plans cover Invisalign just as they would traditional braces, often paying for $1,000 to $2,500 of the total cost. Because every policy is different, our team will perform a complimentary insurance verification for you. If your insurance doesn't cover the full amount, we can supplement your plan with our sedation options for comfort (if needed) and affordable monthly payment plans to cover the remaining balance.
While every smile is unique, the average Invisalign treatment time is between 12 and 18 months. Some minor alignment issues can be corrected in as little as 6 months, while more complex orthodontic cases may take longer. You will start seeing noticeable changes in your smile within the first few months of consistent wear.
Invisalign uses a series of custom engineered, clear plastic aligners to apply controlled pressure to your teeth, moving them gradually into the desired position.
The process begins with a high tech digital scan of your mouth, which we use to map out every tooth movement before you even start. You wear each set of aligners for about 22 hours a day, switching to a new set every two weeks as your smile transforms.
In San Antonio, the cost of Invisalign typically ranges from $3,000 to $7,000, depending on the complexity of your case and the length of treatment. At Smiles of Bulverde, we believe a straight smile should be accessible, which is why we offer flexible financing and a new patient special to help lower your out-of-pocket costs. During your initial consultation, we will provide a transparent, all inclusive quote tailored to your specific goals.
No, there are no food restrictions during Invisalign treatment. However, you will need to remember to remove the aligners before eating and drinking. Your aligners should not be worn when drinking hot beverages, flavored beverages, or eating any food.
Once the aligners are out, you are free to consume what you want. You will need to brush and floss your teeth before putting the aligners back in.
You’re a good candidate for Invisalign if you:
We don’t recommend Invisalign for children, young teens, patients who can’t commit to wearing their aligners or keeping them clean, patients with oral health problems, or patients with severe orthodontic issues.
