Do dentists offer monthly payments for invisalign?

November 13th, 2009

Q. first do u do monthly payment, secondly i am getting married in july i have lots of space in my teeth and my front teeth is shooting out can it be rectified before july
A. Dear Sir/Madam, yes we do monthly payments upto 3 years. As for getting teeth aligned before July, probably yes or at least 80 %. Difficult without seeing you. One cannot move the teeth too quickly withjout fear of bone resorption, but if we can start your treatment then you may be almost there by July.

November 13th, 2009

Q. Would you be able to tell me if is is true that invislaign can only be used to fix minor teeth abnormalities.

Invisalign can treat most irregularities; it just depends on which dentist is treating you
