LAS VEGAS, NEVADA – Aesthetic Orthodontics is offering a new line of invisible braces from Align Technology that treats patients with minor orthodontic problems even faster than before: Invisalign Express 5.
“This new, faster, less expensive orthodontic treatment method lets people who have very minor orthodontic imperfections straighten their teeth in three months or less,” said Dr. Alpan, a Larchmont orthodontist.
Aesthetic Orthodontics was among the first orthodontic practices to add the product, which Align Technology released on Jan. 30 to Invisalign doctors in North America. Dr. Alpan has offered the original Invisalign since 1999.
Patients with minor orthodontic issues, such as very mild crowding or spacing and early onset orthodontic relapse, qualify for this new treatment option. They are given a series of five aligner sets that they switch out approximately every two weeks, gradually moving teeth into the desired position.
Actual treatment time and price vary depending on the complexity of the patient’s condition, but this new treatment is faster and more affordable than ever. Patients can expect an average treatment time with Invisalign Express 5 of three months and the cost to range from $1,600 to $2,300.
“Patients still get the same quality results and all the benefits of Invisalign products,” Dr. Alpan says, who is in the top three Invisalign providers for Larchmont, Los Angeles and Century City.
As the view of Larchmont TMJ dentist, the aligners’ virtual invisibility is the biggest draw to the treatment method. Adults like how discrete treatment is, and the aligners are popular among athletes because there are no wires or brackets to break or cause injury during sporting events. Patients of all ages say they like that the appliance is comfortable and removable, which makes eating, drinking, brushing and flossing easier.
Dr. Alpan, who is a Larchmont braces provider, also offers traditional Invisalign and Invisalign Teen for more complex malocclusions.
