How much do aligners cost?

Each doctor sets their own fees. The cost to patients is generally comparable to or cheaper than other orthodontic options, ranging from around $1,000 to $7,000 USD, depending on the complexity of treatment, your location, and other factors.

Are aligners covered by dental insurance?

Many dental plans do include coverage for orthodontic appliances such as clear aligners.

Your doctor and insurance company can provide more details.

Do I have to pay for everything up front?

Wear aligners as directed by your doctor—usually two to three weeks per step, at least 22 hours per day. Take them out to eat and brush your teeth.

How long does treatment take?

This varies from patient to patient. Treatment can take anywhere from a few months to a few years, depending on the complexity of the case.
