Invisalign®

Invisalign® is the clear way to straighten teeth without braces, using aligners. Aligners are removable and virtually invisible, which means you can straighten your teeth without anyone knowing; and you can still eat and drink what you want. Also, you can brush and floss normally to maintain healthy gums and teeth; and there are no wires, metal or brackets to cause mouth abrasions.

Dr. Boni is certified by Align Technology and has attended various seminars on the Invisalign® system.

Many of our patients had never considered traditional braces but are now happily and comfortably improving their smiles with Invisalign.

How much does Invisalign® cost?

The average cost for Invisalign® ranges from $1000 to $1500 more than traditional metal braces. For your convenience, we have flexible payment options to help make your treatment more affordable.

What steps do I need to take to begin treatment with Invisalign®?

During your complimentary initial examination, we will take the necessary X-rays, digital photographs and impressions to create a personalized treatment plan that will meet your specific needs and desires.

When will I get my aligners?

After we take the X-rays, digital photographs and impressions, we will send that information to Invisalign®, where your custom aligners will be fabricated using 3-D computer imaging technology. Together, Dr. Boni and Invisalign® will determine how the finished result will be achieved. Once this has been determined the final aligners will be created and supplied. This generally takes two to four weeks.

How often will I need to come in for an appointment?

Each aligner is worn for two weeks. We will supply four sets at a time, so normally, appointments are every six weeks.
