Invisalign Cost without Insurance in Norwalk, CT 

The cost of Invisalign may vary a bit from person to person depending on how extensive the treatment will be, what the local competition is like, and what region you live in. In Connecticut, the average cost of Invisalign ranges from $3,000 to $7,000. Retainers will typically be required after the Invisalign treatment is complete to help keep the teeth in their new position, which can cost anywhere from $100 to $300 as well.

While Invisalign will typically cost between $3,000 and $7,000 without insurance, there are only some insurance companies that will cover a portion of the cost, and none that will cover the cost entirely. The insurance companies that often offer some coverage for Invisalign include Delta Dental, Humana, Aetna, and Cigna. Delta Dental includes some insurance plans that would cover 50% of the Invisalign treatment up to $2,000. Depending on the coverage plan you have with Humana, they will cover up to 20% of the Invisalign cost. If you go with Aetna, they will typically cover $500, $1,000, or $1,250 of your Invisalign treatment, but the coverage they offer can vary depending on the age of the consumer. Cigna offers one dental coverage plan that will cover $1,000 for your Invisalign treatment. So, Invisalign will never be completely covered by your insurance, but it is worth checking out the plans available to you to see if you could save a substantial amount of money on Invisalign.

The cost of Invisalign is pretty comparable to that of braces, it just depends on where you are going and what is covered on your dental insurance plan. Invisalign can end up being a little bit more expensive than braces, unless the condition is severe, in which case braces can end up being much more expensive. However, barring you have jaw misalignment for which the orthodontic procedure is necessary to fix, Invisalign is often preferred for its shorter treatment time, subtler appearance, and longer time allowed between appointments.

Invisalign is also removable, making eating and dental hygiene a bit easier, and are also known for being more comfortable than braces, but they can also be considered more inconvenient because of the fact that they must be removed to eat or drink and need to be stored properly while they are not being worn. They require more maintenance from the wearer between appointments with the orthodontist, but with that maintenance comes easier maintaining teeth. Unfortunately, Invisalign cannot address all orthodontic needs for many patients, so braces are often preferred as they can fix most jaw problems as well and are more likely to provide perfect results.

Invisalign can be paid using monthly payments typically around $99/month. If you are concerned about being able to afford your Invisalign treatment, it is common to take out a loan to help cover the costs. If you are applying for a loan, it is likely that you will need a credit score of at least 580 to be approved. There are many options for financing, including flexible payment plans, opening a new credit card account (as long as you know you’ll be able to make the payments), or loans.

Invisalign itself does not require a credit check, so as long as you are able to afford the treatment and make all of the agreed-upon payments, it can be a great affordable option.
