Invisalign: options, care and your treatment quote

Aligners and braces are orthodontic tools. The choice depends on the movements needed and your routine. Aligners are removed for meals and cleaning; braces remain fixed. Both require check-ups and a retention plan afterwards.

Ceramic braces are fixed to teeth and use wires, with brackets less conspicuous in colour than metal ones. Aligners are clear, removable trays. Appearance is one factor; your bite and diagnosis also determine the appropriate option.

Candidacy requires an orthodontic assessment. Tooth position, bite, dental and gum health, and required movements are reviewed. Daily wear and attendance at check-ups also matter. Dr. Mafer Pantoja and the team explain the options for your case.

Duration is estimated after diagnosis and depends on required movements, tooth response and adherence to the plan. Your provider may adjust treatment following check-ups. Patients do not all need the same number of aligners.

Follow the manufacturer’s and your provider’s instructions. Rinse and clean aligners using the prescribed method, maintain oral hygiene and store them in their case when removed. Avoid hot water and ask before using cleaning products.

BE SMILE prepares a quote after assessment. Cost depends on complexity, the indicated system and follow-up. Ask what the plan includes and whether adjustments or retainers are quoted separately. Reception can confirm the initial consultation cost before booking.

Ask reception about payment methods and any current terms or promotions for your plan. Before accepting, request eligibility requirements, payment terms, included items and total cost in writing. Availability is confirmed directly with the clinic.

Moving teeth requires professional diagnosis and follow-up. An online kit does not replace assessment of your bite, teeth and gums. At BE SMILE, a plan is defined after assessment and includes check-ups.

No. Invisalign is one brand among clear aligner systems. BE SMILE offers Invisalign and aligner options; confirm the proposed system, what it includes and who will provide follow-up.

Review the team’s qualifications and licences, the initial assessment, and how the system, check-ups and quote are explained. At BE SMILE you can learn about Dr. Mafer Pantoja and confirm your care provider with reception.
