Invisalign users...?

Is invisalign really better than braces and how much does it cost, does it make you talk funny, and do you get alot of saliva when you wear them?

Invisalign users...?
invisalign is great if you just have a few minor rotations. If you want "perfect" teeth you should go with conventional braces, invisalign is more expensive and you don't get a good of results with it.
Reply:i dont know but i know it's expensive. my sister got fitted yesterday and it's 1,400 just to being the process and 400 everytime u get fitted for a new piece(every month)
Reply:Invisalign may cost LESS than braces, gives excellent results, takes less time than braces, and can be used to do almost all of the same things metal appliances do.





In my area, $2700 to $5000 for Invisalign.





Some of the answers above are outdated!
Reply:I would not say that Invisalign is better or worse than braces, because it depends on the case. There is no set answer. After a few minutes of wearing them, your speech will sound just fine. They are very thin and pretty much exactly the same shape as your teeth. They do tend to increase the amount of saliva in your mouth at first, but you soon get used to that and the salivary flow seems to slow back to normal after a while, also.





In my rural South Jersey general practice, I charge $3,000 for most Invisalign cases, which is less than traditional braces in most cases. I have heard that some charge more for Invisalign than they do for braces, though. The thing is, I an not a specialist and I choose to do only "easy" cases that will not require extra devices to be used in conjunction with Invisalign. This can add to the fee significantly.
