Smile Center Dentistry plans Invisalign Clear Aligners digitally, so you see a projected before-and-after on screen before ordering your first set of aligners.
Every Smile Center Dentistry office offering Invisalign Clear Aligners is held to the same four standards, verified before the office ever joins our network.
An intraoral scanner captures your bite in minutes, replacing the old alginate tray most patients dread.
Before ordering aligners, you'll see a projected simulation of how your teeth are expected to move, stage by stage.
We explain exactly which teeth need attachments or IPR and why, before treatment begins.
The full course of aligners, refinement trays, and check-ins is quoted as one package price before you start.
Every option below is available under the same upfront-pricing standard, whichever specific service ends up fitting your case.
The scan and screening visit determines complexity and gives you a realistic treatment-length estimate. More complex bite issues may still qualify, just with a longer projected timeline.
We walk through the simulation together and make adjustments before finalizing the treatment plan. This is the step where you get a real sense of how long treatment will realistically take.
Small attachments give aligners extra grip on certain teeth, and IPR creates minimal space where crowding requires it. Attachments are tooth-colored and barely noticeable in normal conversation.
Each tray is worn roughly one to two weeks before moving to the next, typically 20 to 22 hours a day. Compliance with wear time is the single biggest factor in staying on schedule.
Periodic in-office or virtual check-ins confirm teeth are tracking with the simulation. Most patients need a check-in every six to eight weeks.
A final refinement round fine-tunes any remaining minor movement before treatment is considered complete. Refinement trays are typically included in the original treatment quote.
Here's exactly what to expect, start to finish, for Invisalign Clear Aligners at any of our affiliated offices.
Schedule an intraoral scan and eligibility screening, usually within the same week.
We answer questions and adjust the plan together at this stage.
You'll get one flat-rate price covering the full course of trays before ordering begins.
We stay involved through the final retainer fitting, not just the first few weeks.
We publish these as-is, because that's the only kind of review worth reading before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners.
“Seeing the simulation before committing made the decision so much easier. I knew roughly what to expect the whole way through.”
“No goop trays for the impression, just a quick scan. Should have looked into this years ago.”
“The refinement trays were already included in my quote, so there was no surprise bill at the end of treatment.”
“My teeth actually tracked ahead of the simulation timeline, and they caught it and adjusted my check-in schedule accordingly.”
“Attachments were barely noticeable, and the whole process felt a lot less intimidating than traditional braces would have.”
These are the questions Paterson patients ask most before booking Invisalign Clear Aligners.
Mild cases can finish in six months; more complex cases may take twelve to eighteen months, based on your simulation.
Mild to moderate crowding and spacing are typically excellent candidates; more complex bites may need a longer plan or traditional braces.
Not every case requires attachments — it depends on the specific movements needed.
Wear time compliance is the biggest factor in staying on the simulation's projected schedule.
Refinement trays exist specifically to correct minor tracking differences at the end of treatment.
Check-in visits are included in the original treatment cost, not billed separately.
We can usually confirm same-week availability for Invisalign Clear Aligners before you even finish describing your situation.
Our Invisalign Clear Aligners team serves Paterson and the surrounding area, with intraoral scanning available in-office so there's no separate imaging trip. Virtual check-ins are available for patients outside our immediate area who still want to be treated here.
