What Counts as a Dental Emergency? (And What to Do)
Knocked-out teeth, swelling and severe pain need care fast. Here is what counts as a dental emergency and what to do until you are seen.
In Ontario, Invisalign treatment commonly costs somewhere between about $3,000 and $8,000. Where you fall in that range depends mostly on how much your teeth need to move and how long treatment takes. Minor touch-ups cost less; complex cases that take longer cost more. This is a general range, not a quote. Your exact cost comes from an exam and treatment plan.
Some dental plans include orthodontic coverage that can apply to Invisalign, often with a lifetime maximum. Coverage varies a lot, so check your plan. Our front desk can help you understand your benefits before you start.
Invisalign and traditional braces are often in a similar price range for comparable cases. Many adults choose Invisalign because the aligners are nearly invisible and removable for eating and brushing. The right choice depends on your teeth and your goals.
For many people, straighter teeth are easier to clean and can reduce uneven wear. The key to good results is wearing the aligners about 20 to 22 hours a day, as your dentist recommends.
