Invisalign – West Palm Beach, FL
Your Clear Path to a Straighter Smile
Invisalign from our West Palm Beach, FL cosmetic dentist is one example of the amazing technology that is currently available in dentistry. It is an orthodontic system that uses a series of clear, removable aligners to move the teeth into the positions that we want them to be in.

How does Invisalign work?
We will take impressions of your teeth and create a virtual model that will be used to plan your tooth movement. I can actually show you what your teeth look like before we start and what they will look like once your treatment has been completed!
Every two weeks you will wear a new set of aligners until the treatment is complete and the teeth are in the positions we had planned for them to be in.
For most patients, I will need to see you every 6 weeks to make sure the teeth are moving as planned.
Invisalign Clear Braces vs. Traditional Braces
Invisalign is a much more comfortable alternative to braces because it does not use wires to straighten the teeth. Traditional braces have metal brackets and wires which need to be tightened (ouch), which can also poke through and hurt your gums and lips (ouch again).
Invisalign patients also don’t have to worry about all the food that typically gets stuck in traditional braces, as well as the constant cleaning braces require to maintain healthy teeth and gums. With Invisalign, you can eat whatever you want. Simply remove the aligner, eat and drink what you desire, and pop in the aligner and away you go (after brushing your teeth, of course!).
How long does Invisalign treatment last?
The answer is…it depends! A minor case can take as little as 10 weeks and more complex cases can span over a year. I would say the majority of my patients using Invisalign are done after approximately 5-9 months of treatment time.
Why should I consider Invisalign?
If you are thinking of straightening your teeth, it is most likely because you are not happy with the way they look. They are either too crowded or there are spaces that you wish were not there. While correcting these issues will no doubt result in a nice smile, there are other reasons to consider Invisalign.
- Crowded teeth make it really hard to practice good home hygiene. These areas trap plaque and increase the incidence of tooth decay and/or periodontal disease (gum and bone loss). Eliminating crowding by straightening your teeth will allow you to take better care of yourself at home.
- Crowding and spacing will get worse with time. If you are not happy with the way your teeth look now, I can bet that you will not be happy with the way they look in the future. This is because crowding and spacing issues progress and will worsen with time. The sooner you intervene, the shorter the treatment time will be as compared to waiting until it is “really, really bad.”
Am I too old for Invisalign?
Invisalign is perfectly suited for adults as the aligners are near invisible and will minimally interfere with your everyday life. Invisalign will enhance your smile and self-confidence, and you will have teeth that are in ideal positions for home care that will help you keep them for a lifetime. So the answer is… you are just the right age for Invisalign!

Understanding the Cost of Invisalign
Even if you’ve had your heart set on Invisalign for a while now, chances are you have some concerns about the price tag attached to the treatment. Our team wants you to have all the facts before you make any major decisions regarding your smile. That’s why you can find some information below that can help when you’re budgeting for Invisalign.
Factors That Affect the Cost of Invisalign

Because each patient’s smile is so unique and each treatment so intricate, there is no fixed cost of Invisalign in West Palm Beach. We can’t even give you an accurate cost estimate until Dr. Asinmaz has had the opportunity to review your specific case and plan out your treatment. The most influential factor that affects how much Invisalign costs is the number of aligners you’ll need to wear, which varies based on:
- The complexity of your case – Naturally, it takes more time (and more aligners) to straighten extensively crooked teeth than it does to fix minor orthodontic flaws.
- Whether you’re straightening one or both arches – Most patients need to wear aligners on both their upper and lower teeth throughout the course of their treatment, but that’s not always the case. If you only need to align one arch, your overall costs will be lower.
- Your compliance with our treatment instructions – Your treatment could end up taking longer (and being more expansive) if you don’t wear the aligners as directed, lose an aligner, or don’t attend regular progress visits.
Invisalign or Smile Direct Club™: Which Costs More?

If you’ve been interested in straightening your teeth, then you may have heard about Smile Direct Club™ and other mail-order clear aligner kits that let you handle most of the treatment at home. Although they tend to cost much less than Invisalign does, there are risks that come with aligning your smile without the supervision of a trained dental professional. For example, making a tiny error when capturing impressions for the aligners could result in your teeth shifting in ways other than you’d planned. In that case, you might end up needing to have the issue corrected by an Invisalign dentist in West Palm Beach. As you can expect, this would be much more expensive than simply seeing us in the first place! With the oversight of Dr. Asinmaz, you can rest easy knowing your treatment will be safe and effective every step of the way.
Does Dental Insurance Cover Invisalign?

Dental insurance will provide partial coverage for Invisalign in some cases, but not always. For instance, even if your plan includes orthodontic coverage, it may only apply to traditional braces or to patients under the age of 18. Our team understands that dental insurance can be difficult to navigate, which is why we’ll help you maximize your benefits. We accept all PPO dental plans, so no matter your plan, you can look forward to saving at our practice!
Options for Making Invisalign Affordable

We believe that a straight, healthy smile should be within everyone’s reach, which is why we’re happy to offer affordable financing through CareCredit for patients who need it. Once you’ve been approved, you can break up your Invisalign costs into monthly payments. Depending on the specific payment plan you choose, you might have extremely low or even zero interest rates!
