5 mistakes people make when looking to start Invisalign:
1. Choosing based on price alone: Invisalign isn’t just about the price, it’s about the planning. Your smile is long-term, not a discount purchase
2. Not checking provider experience: Not all Invisalign providers treat cases regularly. Experience dramatically affects outcome predictability.
3. Not committing to wear time: Invisalign only works if you wear it. 20-22 hours per day. Every. Day. If you’re not ready for that level of consistency, results will suffer.
4. Ignoring attachment planning: Attachments aren’t random…they control movement precision. Poor attachment planning can = compromised results, so yes, you DO have to have them.
5. Not planning for retention: Teeth move back. Without retainers, your investment can undo itself (just like your tooth alignment!). Retention isn’t optional…it’s essential and very often more than one type of retainer may be recommended.
