Misalignment of teeth can have a negative impact on one’s overall appearance. Dr. Munira Lokhandwala and the team of StarBrite Dental in Fremont want patients to know there are options other than traditional orthodontic treatment. Invisalign is a wonderful alternative that patients often enjoy because it provides discreet yet effective straightening.
Invisalign is best described as clear aligner tray therapy. This is an efficient way of guiding teeth into proper alignment. This treatment is done over the course of months. Dr. Lokhandwala takes impressions of the patient’s mouth, which are used to fabricate custom aligners. Trays are worn for two weeks at a time, before progressing to the next set, to reposition teeth where they need to be for an improved bite and arch alignment. Invisalign is effective, difficult to see, and one of the most comfortable options on the market today.
Many factors are taken into consideration to determine the overall cost of treatment. Invisalign is relatively affordable and is comparable to the cost of conventional braces. This treatment can eliminate the need for other alternatives, such as porcelain veneers, to cover misaligned teeth. The price of Invisalign is often determined by considering how severe the misalignment is, whether the patient needs treatment on the top and/or bottom arch, and on compliance. It is not typical for dental insurance to cover Invisalign, as it is considered elective.
By calling Dr. Lokhandwala at 510-795-7786, you can find out if Invisalign treatment is right for you. Her practice, StarBrite Dental, services patients in and around Fremont at 38350 Fremont Boulevard, Suite #103 location.
