Clear Correct Aligners
What Are Clear Correct Aligners?
​
If you're a good candidate for clear correction teeth aligners, your doctor will take photos and x-rays, use a scanner or impressions to capture the shape of your teeth and submit your prescription to ClearCorrect aligners.
​
We'll make a series of aligners customized to apply pressure to the teeth that you want to move. Your dentist will check your progress periodically and give you new sets of aligners. You'll wear the aligners for at least 22 hours per day, progressing through each step until your treatment is done.
How Much Do Clear Correct Aligners Cost?
Each dentists office sets their own fees. Clear Correct cost to patients is generally comparable to other orthodontic options, ranging from around $2,000 to $8,000 USD, depending on the complexity of treatment, your location, and other factors.
Are Clear Correct Aligners Covered by Dental Insurance?
Many dental plans do include coverage for orthodontic appliances such as clear aligners. If you meet your insurance company's eligibility requirements, they may cover a portion of the total treatment cost up to a lifetime maximum, which is typically between $1,000 to $3,000 USD. Your doctor and insurance company can provide more details.
