Have you been thinking about investing in orthodontic treatment? Crooked teeth are not only unsightly, but they may also present a danger to your oral health. Fortunately, modern dentistry offers numerous ways to straighten teeth, one of which is Invisalign in Torrington. This innovative treatment is ideal for many adults and teens who want to achieve more attractive teeth without putting up with the inconveniences of traditional orthodontics. In this article, we will discuss why right now is the perfect time to begin your Invisalign journey.
Dental Insurance Benefits Expire Soon
Since orthodontic treatment typically costs a significant amount of money, many patients ask, “Does dental insurance cover Invisalign?” The answer to that question varies between policies. Some dental plans offer one-time, 50% coverage for orthodontic treatment, up to the amount of the plan’s annual maximum. For many patients, this means that their insurance can cut back on their out of pocket costs by hundreds of dollars. For others, their policy might contribute $1,000 or more to their treatment.
The front office staff at your local dental office will be happy to help you navigate your policy’s fine print and figure out whether your insurance covers Invisalign. If it does, you should act promptly to begin your treatment. That is because most insurance plans work on a calendar-year basis. On December 31, your current plan may expire, and you could lose out on your remaining benefits. Of course, you could choose to wait and use 2021’s benefits, but if you do so, you may have to start again with your deductible and thus face a greater cost than if you began Invisalign right away.
Specials Are Available
At Torrington Dental Care, we love to help our patients love their smiles. That is why we are offering a limited-time special deal on Invisalign. You can get started for only $999, and our team will help you explore options for paying the reminder of the cost. For example, you can choose to take advantage of reasonable monthly payments via autopay. CareCredit financing is another accessible way to break up the cost of Invisalign into affordable installments.
Look Forward to an Improved Smile
Did you know that, on average, Invisalign takes just 12 months to finish its work? Of course, it might take less or more time than that for you, depending on your unique teeth. However, the fact remains that you may be able to achieve a totally transformed smile by the time your 2021 year-end activities roll around.
