Is Invisalign worth it? An honest breakdown

Is Invisalign worth it? An honest breakdown

Person fitting a clear Invisalign aligner

Short answer: for most adults with crowding or spacing, yes — if you’ll actually wear the aligners 22 hours a day. Here’s the longer answer.

What it costs

From £2,400 for Lite cases to £4,200 for Full. That includes retainers and whitening at the end, which other practices sometimes add on. Spread over 12 months at 0%, Lite works out at £200 a month.

How long it takes

Six to eighteen months. The 3D scan gives you a realistic estimate before you commit to anything, and most of our Lite cases finish inside nine.

The bit nobody mentions

Compliance. Twenty-two hours a day means taking them out only to eat and brush. If you know that’s not you, fixed braces will get a better result — and we’ll say so.

When we’d say no

Severe bite problems, untreated gum disease, or if you know you won’t wear them. We’ll tell you at the consultation, which is free.
