The Cost of Invisalign depends on a lot of factors. Although we can offer an average ballpark figure, that number is very broad. The only way to really find out the cost of Invisalign for you is to see an orthodontist. At Clearsmile NC, we make that easy by offering a free initial consultation. In fact, you can begin right now with a Virtual Smile Assessment!
Factors That Affect the Cost of Invisalign
In exploring the many factors that affect the total cost of Invisalign, we need to begin by explaining that the total is a total. What we mean by that is that the figure you will be given after your initial consultation covers the entire treatment period. It isn’t broken down to a set amount per visit. If your treatment period is 24 months, the total covers the entire 24 month period. While you may experience sticker shock at first, it isn’t really bad and can fit quite comfortably in a budget.

Among the factors that affect the cost of Invisalign, the most significant is the degree of misalignment. While minor adjustments can be corrected in as little as six months and cost less, more complex issues take longer and cost more. Most Invisalign treatment plans extend over a 12 to 24 month period. Invisalign can be very effective in treating minor to complex malocclusions, but each treatment plan is unique.
Location plays a small role in the cost. Each orthodontist has a set hourly rate for services and this also will cause variance in the overall cost.
Dental insurance can be a great help with orthodontic treatment. While each policy is different, the staff at Clearsmile NC can help you sort through the fine print. We will assist you to ensure that you receive all the benefits your insurance offers.
Fit Invisalign into Your Budget
The average cost of Invisalign ranges from $3,000 to $8,000 nationally and can vary greatly based on the factors discussed previously. At Clearsmile NC, our treatment plans average between $2,800 and $7,000. Every smile is different, so every treatment plan is custom-fit for your smile.
Fitting a treatment plan into your budget is not as difficult as you may be thinking. Insurance often offsets a large chunk depending on your coverage. After an adjustment for insurance coverage, Clearsmile NC offers a variety of comfortable monthly payment options that vary from $99 to $300 per month.
If your employer offers a Flex Plan, FSA, or HSA, those funds may be applicable to orthodontic treatment. Unfortunately, each plan varies, and not all plans will cover Invisalign. You can discuss this with your plan representative to determine if your employer-sponsored savings plan will help.
Clearsmile NC also offers a discount for payment in full and flexible payment options including $0 down/0% interest monthly payments. We also accept most major credit cards.
